A carnival of mediocrity: the year in politics This has been a 12 months for resignations, disgrace, duplicity and strife in Westminster By @willydunn newstatesman.com/politics/the-s…
It's super prescient, everything in it will definitely happen newstatesman.com/culture/fictio…
Wrote about how our failing social care system is a symptom of a broken model of political economy: 👉outsourced, privatised services 👉0 state capacity + bankrupt local gov. 👉dependency on low-waged migrant workforce 👉spillover demand into NHS 👉hedge funds/PE reaping rewards
‘It seems the progressive mindset is now so flexible that it can accommodate an attitude to labour relations that would be familiar in an autocratic Gulf petrostate.’ @DespoticInroad on our broken social care system 👇 buff.ly/nAYko5U
I cannot overstate what a gripping, breathtaking read the Kate Mossman feature in this issue is. Buy a copy, read it in print, I guarantee you will not be disappointed.
🎄THE NEW STATESMAN CHRISTMAS ISSUE🎄 Our Christmas issue has landed! Inside the 120 page jumbo issue: 🗣️ Interviews with @Nigel_Farage, @wesstreeting and Salman Rushdie ✍️ Columns by @ZackPolanski, @GordonBrown, @AndrewMarr9 and @lewis_goodall 📚 Features from
Colourful, must-read with a scary late pay-off from Freddie
Everyone knows that Nigel Farage is friends with Donald Trump. But his relationship with America is much deeper than that. My piece on his forty year love affair with the US: newstatesman.com/politics/uk-po…
Lovely, nuanced and thought-provoking interview
WES STREETING: “I’M PRETTY FRUSTRATED” Interview with @PronouncedAlva Labour, languishing in the polls, is having a torrid time in office and a leadership contest is widely expected at some point in 2026. Privately, cabinet ministers barely pretend that the party isn’t in deep
Somewhat disturbed by the fact that Wes Streeting played both Scrooge and Tiny Tim in school plays….

Oxford health professionals advise mothers to question “sensationalist” media coverage. The @NewStatesman has seen a letter sent to worried mums who raise concern about OUH maternity care, reminding them not believe everything they read in the papers newstatesman.com/investigation/…
Adored this payoff at the end of @PronouncedAlva's Wes Streeting interview newstatesman.com/politics/uk-po…
EXC interview with @wesstreeting by @PronouncedAlva. On *that* "drive by", his frustrations with the government — and playing Tiny Tim. Must read! newstatesman.com/politics/uk-po…

This is genuinely unmissable: detailed, insightful reporting from inside the rooms (and smoking areas) where Farage and others have spent decades planning the future of British politics. If I was a publisher I'd be throwing money at @freddiejh8 to do this at book length
NIGEL FARAGE'S AMERICAN DREAM by @freddiejh8 When Nigel Farage flew into JFK Airport, New York, for the first time in 1988, he was travelling into the future. Ronald Reagan was the global figurehead of a conservative counter-revolution sweeping the West, one that merged
What would Farage do each day in Washington DC?

Change in minimum wage since it was introduced in 1999: +239% Change in UK average property price over same period: +359%
Minimum wage should not go any higher, suggests Badenoch bbc.in/3KFsjUS
Infuriating and deeply unfair that Finn is able to turn a trip to Harrods food hall into such a brilliant column. All I'd get from such a venture would be a third chin, and possibly gout
This week I investigated the explosion in the London luxury supermarket scene Click through to learn exactly how much it costs to buy carrots at Harrods
