Say what you like about Lewinsky but she’s aged very well - looks better as she gets older
Dr. Jebra Faushay@JebraFaushay
Name something better than Monica Lewinsky and Lena Dunham. Impossible, this is a peak cultural experience.

The 2026 @FIFAWorldCup Final will feature a "halftime show" for the first time in history, FIFA President Gianni Infantino tells @maxwelltani, revealing it will be "curated by Chris Martin and Coldplay." "I cannot yet tell you which artists will be performing, but it's not one, it's more than one. And it will be the biggest in the world. It will be fantastic."

@timothy_stanley It's not the size of the flag; it's how you use it.

Tho comforted by a wall of enormous flags, he added a smaller flag just to be sure.

@JAHeale @OliDugmore Ok. To compare like with like. Academic who never became PM with academic who never became PM. Rory Stewart has nothing on J. Enoch Powell. Both in my opinion too academic for the job btw.

@OliDugmore “Best Prime Minister we never had”
Shocking George Curzon erasure.

“Rory Stewart is the best prime minister we never had.” I can’t tell you how many times I’ve read that sentence, in my texts, in comments sections, after our interviews. Over the last 10 years he’s spoken to me as a Tory leadership contender, Covid canary in the coal mine, independent London mayoral candidate, or, as in this instance, a podcaster and author.
His brand of conscientious conservatism beguiles the significant part of our country that is relatively normal and looked on in horror/confusion as the right wing actively attacked Britain and/or descended into explicit bigotry, parochialism, and conspiracy.
We spoke about political evil and how it’s often fun to be so, boarding schools, and whether or not we should rewild wolves in Britain.
Eclectic and thoughtful. Performative and precise. I think it’s the best episode of The Exchange so far, but it’s Yanis Varoufakis next week and that was pretty good too. Subscribe, listen in bio, text me about alternate realities. xx

I am deeply alarmed that the United Kingdom is prepared to transfer the Chagos Archipelago to Mauritius.
This deal is dangerous to U.S. interests, and President Trump is right to be furious at the U.K.’s decision.

Trump to UK “Stop people from pouring into his country from faraway lands.
“Two very simple things: Open up the North Sea. Immediately. Your energy prices are through the roof.
"And stop people from coming in from foreign lands who hate you.”

President Nixon was a brilliant, great and good man. A true patriot.
He was framed.
And he is being vindicated at long last.
Drew Pavlou 🇦🇺🇺🇸🇺🇦🇹🇼@DrewPavlou
Everybody needs to read this - these new revelations legitimately completely transform our historical understanding of Richard Nixon. Nixon basically had conclusive proof that the Joint Chiefs of Staff systematically spied on him and attempted to undermine him as part of a right wing plot against his government. If he had publicised this world-historic scandal during Watergate, he might have actually rallied enough support with the public to save his Presidency. His paranoia and sense of being under constant siege was much mocked at the time, but these revelations show that he actually had good reason to feel this way. But rather than publicise this extraordinary scandal, Nixon decided to go to his grave with the secret, solely to protect the honour and integrity of the US armed forces and America's international reputation for democracy during the Cold War. We are only learning about it now, 32 years after his death. Nixon was such a good man. Far from being ''a crook,'' he is perhaps one of the most honourable men to ever be President.

Good response on both counts.

I asked @GavinWilliamson if he was set to defect to @reformparty_uk as @michaelgove predicted. He told me: 'It's certainly news to me. Michael gets a lot of things wrong. He thought banning plastic straws was a good idea and replacing them with paper!!!' latika.me/GavinGove @politicshome
