Trains · LondonTrain travel in the UK has become an increasingly painful experience in the past few years. Prices continue to rise at an astonishing rate, meanwhile delays, cancellations and strikes have become the norm. Many have simply given up on this mode of transport. Last night, Labour announced their plan to get Britain’s railways back on track. But what does this mean? And could bringing trains back into public ownership really fix the dire state of ra…See the Story

London, England · LondonThere are few universal rules for what makes good writing, but one has long persisted: kill your darlings. Cut the flourishes that don’t meaningfully add to the greater work, no matter how much you love them, and you’ll be left with a more coherent piece of art.

Rishi Sunak · LondonOn Friday 3 May, Rishi Sunak will enter the danger zone. The local election results will be in and they will be, in all probability, ghastly. For those Tory MPs who want to remove him, this is their moment. They might not get a second chance. Sunak’s team evidently recognise this. It is no coincidence that the last few days have seen a flurry of activity. One criticism often made about the Prime Minister is that he is too passive, that he fails …See the Story

Tennis · GermanyIn a hotel lobby, tennis player Patrick Zweig (Josh O’Connor) is trying to flirt his way into a free room. As he leans across the counter, smirk angled in the direction of the receptionist, the camera pays special attention to the strain of O’Connor’s tight blue shorts. As if it wasn’t obvious what director Luca Guadagnino was doing, the couple in the queue behind expresses similar, smutty appreciation. Challengers, his new film, is delirious wi…See the Story
