"Actually, the Kindertransport was bad."

[James Heale @JAHeale]

Interesting from Katie Lam in The Times. The institutions and assumptions of the postwar world now find little favour among much of the contemporary right

You all owe Alex Garland an apology

Voters rejected the politics of cruelty this season. GOP said Texas Dem might be a perv. The Muslim guy must be al-Qaeda. Or the candidate who was raped by her step-father might be lying.

Meet Stephen Morgan. None of this is his fault. My SKETCH of the ideal junior minister. https://t.co/ukRykNN55r

[The Critic @TheCriticMag]

Why do journalists constantly talk about their “feels” at party conferences?

@RobDotHutton, a seasoned conference-goer, talks to @HCH_Hill and @93vintagejones about what this year’s conferences say about Reform and the Tories.

Listen now.
