The night before, I’d written for the New Statesman that the body, comprised of 69 voting members, were set to vote on whether or not to “disavow” the Cass Review into gender identity services for children and young people. According to several sources, that was indeed the plan. But it’s not what happened on the day. I can’t tell you exactly what …See the Story

Emmanuel Macron · LondonThe Olympic Games were Emmanuel Macron’s chance to show off France – and himself – to the world. On 31 May, just before Macron called the legislative elections, credit rating agency Standard and Poor’s downgraded France to an AA rating, citing concerns over the state of the debt the Macron government incurred during Covid, and “political fragmentation” which would make achieving economic growth harder. Since then, an inconclusive election and th…See the Story

David Lammy · GazaThe UK’s Foreign Secretary David Lammy has spoken eloquently about the need for a new relationship with the Global South, one based on genuine equality. This would mark the end of the postcolonial age and the beginning of something approaching global democracy. These days everyone wants to talk about the Global South, the best sign that things are indeed changing.

London, England · London“Our air is not for sale”. It was these words that earned shadow transport secretary Andrew Smith rapt applause at the 1996 Labour Party conference as he inveighed against the privatisation of air traffic control. But Britain’s air did turn out to be for sale. Only a year after entering office in 1997, Labour announced that half of National Air Traffic Services would be privatised (despite the opposition of 76 per cent of voters). The move exem…See the Story

London, England · LondonFrom 30 years’ distance, I recall spending quite a bit of time at university riding around on Russell Findlay’s back.

Anthony Seldon and Tom Egerton have collected 15 essays from diverse political, journalistic and academic perspectives that deliver a crushing verdict on the past 14 years of government – not from the angle of a hostile ideological programme but largely in respect of pl…See the Story
