Russia’s new depravity: Wrapping deadly mines in rags to drop on Ukraine
When she leaves home every day in Kherson, Natalia Sergienko is never sure if she will come back alive. For her and every inhabitant of this Ukrainian port city, a new lethal threat lies in wait: hundreds of disguised landmines systematically seeded onto pavements, sports fields and bus stations by Russian drones. Moscow’s forces, situated just over a kilometre from the centre of Kherson on the opposite bank of the Dnipro River, have intensified their campaign against the city by routinely depl...
How America’s conspiracy theorists broke the US
On 25 April this year, 31-year-old Cole Tomas Allen was stopped by Secret Service agents while trying to rush into the White House correspondents’ dinner with a gun. He was apprehended on the scene and later charged with attempted assassination in what was the third apparent attempt on Donald Trump’s life. Immediately, conspiracy theories proliferated wildly on social media. Thousands of posts claimed the event had been staged – a “false flag” orchestrated by Trump to gain sympathy. On X, “Toda...

Everybody has been waiting to see what scandalous revelations might appear in the latest tranche of government papers relating to Lord Peter Mandelson’s appointment as UK ambassador to Washington, but so far the papers have provided only thin gruel. The more interesting story is how the British Government and its security apparatus managed either to ignore or not notice damning information about Mandelson’s relations with the paedophile billionaire Jeffrey Epstein, which had long been on the pu...
Replace Reeves if Starmer goes, voters tell Labour
Rachel Reeves should be replaced as Chancellor if Sir Keir Starmer is ousted in a Labour leadership contest, the majority of voters believe. Reeves’ team had told newspapers that she should stay on in order to maintain some stability if Starmer were defeated by Wes Streeting, Andy Burnham or another Labour leader contender in a likely contest this year. But City AM/Freshwater Strategy polling has shown that most voters believe Reeves should be moved on if Starmer left Downing Street. Ar...
Trump loses his temper with Netanyahu in expletive-laden call on Israel's escalation in Lebanon: report

Right to Buy has been a huge success, of course the left hates it
Labour leadership contenders’ claims that Right to Buy is to blame for the housing crisis are absurd, says Ben Hopkinson Last week in a 5,000 word polemic, Tony Blair accused the Labour government of being parked firmly in the party’s ‘soft left’ comfort zone. Perhaps nothing reflects this more than the leadership contender’s short-sighted clamour for social housing at the expense of a functioning housing market. Andy Burnham, in his response to Blair, went as far as claiming that the Right...

Labour may not agree with Blair, but the public does…
This month’s City AM / Freshwater Strategy Poll reveals that the public is largely on the side of the former Prime Minister rather than Keir Starmer or his potential heirs when it comes to welfare, energy costs and growth, says Matthew Lesh Love him or, like many others, absolutely detest his guts, it’s hard to avoid the fact that Tony Blair is an expert attention-getter. His 5,700-word essay last week will be one of the most significant interventions in British politics this year. It is not...

If performance matters more than privilege then prove it
New research shows investors still perceive privately educated CEOs as a “safer bet” despite no evidence of stronger performance outcomes, says Vincent Keaveny Last week at the House of Lords, senior leaders from across financial services gathered to launch Progress Together’s new campaign: Making the Invisible Visible. The campaign focuses on a challenge British business can no longer afford to ignore – the invisible class barriers that continue to shape who progresses, who gets sponsored...
Mandelson Files add insult to injury, but the patient was already beyond saving
The deluge of emails, Whatsapp messages and hand-written notes released yesterday cover the full range of political and diplomatic life, from the absurd to the poignant; from rows over a gift for Donald Trump to soul-searching over Keir Starmer’s failures, it’s all there in black and white. What’s clear at a glance is quite how deeply embedded Mandelson was across government and the top of the Labour party. It’s hard to imagine any other British ambassador with the contacts, networks and Wes...
