“In all of this, of course, she was a newspaper’s dream."

Remembering Rachel Cooke (1969-2025). The Observer journalist was the heart and soul of the paper for 25 years. She leaves an extraordinary legacy.

Some news: after 11 years at the New Statesman I will be joining the Observer as Literary Editor in June. Couldn’t be more excited to be part of a new era for a great newspaper with books and culture criticism in its DNA.

Huge thanks to the NS team — it has been a privilege.

[Rachel Sylvester @RSylvester1]

Some professional news - after 17 amazing years at The Times, I’m excited to be joining The Observer as political editor. Really looking forward to getting back to Westminster and beyond

We did the Commons in 2023, so you know, might as well do the Lords this year?

[Tortoise @tortoise]

🔍 Introducing… the Peer Review.

A new, interactive tool that lets you investigate who is in the House of Lords, how they got there and ultimately, the role they play in British democracy.

Thanks to #WestminsterAccounts, we had previously revealed how Starmer led the pack on freebies https://t.co/E5doyDA29I

He's maintaining that lead overall - but Nigel Farage has accepted more freebies so far this parliament https://t.co/RRW3gpbTqR

[Basia Cummings @basialcummings]

Thrilled that our podcast, reported by @aleximostrous and produced by @GaryJMarshall90, is finding new life as a @NetflixUK doc - coming soon.

I’ve been listening to a lot of Slow Newscasts in recent weeks, including the back catalogue, and they are really very good. Wide range of topics/investigations, eg revisiting the CBI crisis, Neil Gaiman, publishing. From ⁦@tortoise⁩ https://t.co/3WQI60JOS0
