Mum agreed with the man. It was she who declared this was our Chippy Night, an electric phrase that still, in my early 40s, elicits a cry of aGet in!a and a cheer from my teenage daughter. All three of us were there now, outside the Fishermanas Wife in York, our nostrils tickled by the smell of batter and vinegar, our eyes drawn to the cosy glow of a fish and chip shop on a dark night. Among the closed shops and curtained windows of Bishopthorpe Road, it gleamed like a gold tooth in a barren mouth. Continue reading... Gerryas Hot Sub Deli, London: aTake it very seriously indeeda a restaurant review Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:00:22 GMT From https: At Gerryas the sandwich is elevated to a noble art, so roll up your sleeves and get stuck in Gerryas Hot Sub Deli, 50 Exmouth Market, London EC1R 4QE. Sandwiches APS8.25-APS13.50, poutine APS6.75-APS10.70, dessert APS4.25, wine APS6.95 a glass, beer APS3.95 a half pint Happiness is a handful of lunch and dressing running down your forearms. Certainly, anything that demands to be eaten alongside a roll of kitchen paper deserves to be taken seriously. By these criteria, which Iave just invented, but now cleave to like holy scripture, the food at Gerryas Hot Subs on Londonas Exmouth Market deserves to be taken very seriously indeed. Lunch there is messy. Prepare to wipe yourself down afterwards or even nip home for a shower. But my, itas good. The fact is, everybody can make themselves a sandwich, but you donat want just anybody to make one for you. The frame is so very tight: some form of bread as vehicle for everything else. It demands a compulsive interest in detail combined with a profound understanding of what will make for a single, multi-textured mouthful. Followed by another and another.

As her billion-dollar Eras tour lands in the UK, we trace the making of the Swift universe How to write about the biggest, most written-about star in the world as summer 2024 approaches, and with it the arrival of Taylor Swiftas Eras tour in the UK later this week? We could take cues from the normally level-headed New Yorker. But even they recently threw up their hands and pronounced Swift as beyond review a not because reviewers might get doxxed by overzealous Swifties if they dare give her fewer than five stars, but because Swiftas work might officially be beyond good and evil. The New Yorkeras SinA(c)ad OaSullivan contends that Swift is operating so far outside the norm for pop that assessing her output as mere songs is futile: she has created a Marvel-style universe all her own, in which complex internal references abound and the identity of her enemies, and the 3D chess games she is playing, are pored over across the social mediasphere. Teenage girls and young women, it turns out, are not passive consumers of glittery froth, but supercharged Dylanologists crossed with ninja cryptographers, operating at an emotional pitch on the scale of Beatlemania.

Avoid noise, play mini golf, cast your net wide: Ellie Middletonas neurodivergent dating guide Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 06:00:24 GMT From https: From making small talk to missing social cues, the road to romance can be rocky for those with ADHD and autism. Here are some tips for how to navigate it It is safe to say that, when it comes to dating and relationships, Iave never had an easy ride. Iave always been the one who cares more, the one who is atoo intensea and the one who winds up getting hurt. I wear my heart on my sleeve and, as a relatively newly diagnosed autistic woman with ADHD, there are two words that have followed me around and haunted me throughout my entire life: atoo mucha. Until recently, being atoo mucha was a�source of great shame. I spent my teenage years and early 20s trying to navigate dating and relationships while missing a key piece of information about myself a that I was an autistic ADHDer. I didnat know that I was prone to feeling things much more deeply than most people, or that masking made me a chronic people pleaser. I didnat know that I had a social disability, or that my dopamine-seeking brain might look for stimulation from problematic places (or people). I thought that my too much-ness was just a result of being unlovable, broken or a abad datera. Continue reading... I donat want to invite my alcoholic dad to my wedding | Ask Philippa Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:00:23 GMT From https: Trust your gut instinct about not having him there. The shame that is creeping in may be about pressure to conform The question Iam a 30-year-old man who works in mental health. Iam due to get married in a few monthsa time. I donat want to invite my father. He and I have been estranged for several years. We have each otheras mobile numbers, but we donat use them. My father has a lifelong alcohol-use disorder (AUD). He was a violent man. When I was 11, my mother managed to divorce him. Since then, we have mostly parted ways, but his side of the family still attempts to guilt-trip me into caring for him. I have grown up, gone to college and am now enjoying my career. I have come to understand more about addiction. I donat feel resentment towards him and tend to see this in a matter-of-fact way. I do not have any affection for this man, who happens to be my father. I have come to see him as any other person with AUD, but one who happens to have fathered me for a short period of time. (I donat have fond memories of the time we shared in the same household.) Continue reading... Night-time is an intoxicating new land: how learning to love the dark eased my grief Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 06:00:23 GMT From https: From magical moonlit swims to midnight hikes and listening to owls, I have embraced my insomnia and discovered the joy of anight journeysa As I slip out of my clothes, my stomach pinches with fear. The beach a Pevensey Bay in East Sussex a is inky black and eerily empty. The sound of slurping seawater seems noisier than usual, the air smells brinier than it does during the day, and the night breeze feels cool and sharp. My previous efforts at night swimming have been unsuccessful a the current too strong, the waves too wild, my imagination too extravagant. But tonight Iam determined. My daughter Imogen shouts to encourage me and the emergence of a full moon steadies my nerves. Within moments I am bobbing about amid glittering moonshine, laughing and gasping, and wondering why it has taken me half a century to do something as simple and magical as a moonlit dip.

Why health trackers can push you off the road to wellness Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 07:30:25 GMT From https: As we know more about our bodies, from wearable tech to data feedback, so our health anxiety increases. So is it better not to know? One thing led to another and then I was topless on a couch and then a cardiologist, his nose wrinkled, was explaining that everything was fine, except my heart was a bita| weird? I canat remember the exact words, but they amounted, I think, to slightly more than aeccentrica, far less than bizarre. Though he was investigating something else entirely, head noticed that a�valve up in there was slightly odd, definitely unrelated to the issue I was here for, and unlikely to impact my future health in any way. But now that head seen it, he thought it best to tell me. Itas better to know, though, I�asked, right? He shrugged. aSometimes?a he said, non-committal. aItas complicated.a At home, I found myself more aware of my heartbeat, listening for unusual sounds. When, some months later, I had what turned out to be indigestion, I went to the doctor assuming it was that valve, preparing to, perhaps, explode. I have no history of anxiety, had always been largely uninterested in what was happening inside my body - I thought of it in a similar way to the goings on in the vast deep waters of the sea, necessarily unfathomable. But having had this defect revealed to me, I became uncomfortably conscious of all these moving parts, all that could go wrong. Continue reading... USA celebrate T20 World Cup debut in style with stirring victory over Canada Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:10:44 GMT From https: * USA 197-3 beat Canada 194-5 by seven wickets in Dallas, Texas * Jones (94*), Gous (65) guide co-hosts to win with 131-run stand Build it, and they will come. The great American cricket experiment got underway on Saturday night, when the USA beat Canada by seven wickets in the opening match of the T20 World Cup at the little ground in Grand Prairie, Texas. And hellas bells if it wasnat, in its own little way, one of the gameas great occasions. A crowd of around 5,000 were treated to a brilliantly freewheeling innings by the USAas Aaron Jones, a pocket-rocket batsman who was born in Queens, and raised in Barbados. Jones clobbered 10 sixes, one of them clean out of the ground, in an undefeated innings of 94 off just 40 balls. Continue reading...

For Daniel Dubois, the journey into the top flight is only just beginning.

Women in Sportas 40 years mark both progress and need to end inequality Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 07:00:26 GMT From https: Charity founded in 1984 highlights that work still needs to be done to eradicate inequality between the sexes in sport In what year were women allowed to compete in an Olympic marathon for the first time? The answer, 1984, may not only come as quite a shock but may help explain why a gamechanging charity was formed that spring. As Women in Sport marks its 40th birthday, its chief executive, Stephanie Hilborne, is eager to celebrate the real progress over the past four decades while also emphasising why anyone assuming that sporting inequality belongs to the past is, sadly, very much�mistaken.

One of a different kind of seeding and growth, and of a sport that has literally made the earth move, across two continents and 11,000 miles, to make this event happen. When the opening batter takes guard in New York on Monday as Sri�Lanka play South Africa in the first competitive game at the venue, he will be standing on a drop-in pitch that started its life more then eight months ago in the South Australia city of Adelaide.

Child sex abuse is all around us a and online it can start with legal porn | Sonia Sodha Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 08:00:26 GMT From https: Men not originally sexually attracted to children sometimes seek more extreme content, research shows Think of a man viewing images or footage of child sexual abuse online, and what comes to mind? Iad bet that for most of us this horrible thought experiment conjures up a Jimmy Savile-style monster sitting in front of the computer screen. But new research from the Lucy Faithfull Foundation, a child sexual abuse prevention charity, highlights how this paradigm does not by itself account for the scale of online offending. Cling to it too hard�and it could hamper our ability�to prevent the abuse of�children. Because child sexual abuse is such a horrific and unthinkable crime, we tend to aothera the men who do it. They wonat be men in our families, workplaces and communities, but evil individuals in other peopleas lives. This is comforting for us adults, but the complacency it engenders puts children at risk. It turns child sexual abuse into something that happens to other peopleas children, not those you love, and if it were happening, of course youad know because you would be able to spot it.

Must we pity put-upon parents sacrificing all to send their offspring to private school? | Catherine Bennett Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 06:00:22 GMT From https: The rightwing media are full of faux outrage about Labouras plans to apply VAT to fees Given that the overwhelming majority of people are state educated and receive zero, or less, benefit from private schools, there is something almost impressive a when it doesnat look actively demented a about current media campaigns to represent the application of VAT to school fees as a�burning election issue. From the first, Labouras proposal to end private schoolsa exemption and spend the revenue on state schools had a dramatic impact on Tory-sympathising news sources previously unbothered about the private sector becoming, as Civitas�summarised it, aroughly twice as expensive in one generationa. Overnight, thanks to Keir Starmeras plan, it was understood that British�private schools, far from�being an ever more exclusive service for the most affluent, are dear to countless immiserated parents whom the Mail, highlighting�their plight, goes so far�as to call apoora. Some of them are so hard up, journalists report, they live in modest houses, drive aold bangersa and, when they donat asacrificea meals out, deny themselves West End shows. The forgoing of one possible purchase for the sake of another is invariably known, in the lexicon of pro-private school coverage, as a sacrifice. Continue reading...

Hang in there, people. What have we learned? That the Conservatives plan to spray around lots of policies.

You can laugh all you like at Ed Daveyas antics if they restore the Lib Demsa clout Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 07:30:24 GMT From https: The partyas primary ambition is to be once again the third largest force at Westminster Sir Ed Davey doesnat mind acting the silly stunt. If itas Tuesday, heas on Windermere to demonstrate his absence of flair for paddleboarding by falling in multiple times. If itas Wednesday, heas mounting a bike to do a wobbly wheelie as he hurtles down a steep hill in Wales. If itas Thursday, heas careening down a waterslide in Somerset. aHave you got a wetsuit?a is the informal motto of Yellow Hammer�1, his campaign battlebus. I climbed aboard on Friday in the hope of seeing more comedic action from the stuntman. Visiting a target seat in the home counties, the Lib Dem leader plonks on a chefas hat and joins a baking lesson for primary schoolchildren during which he confesses he is no Mary Berry. I protest to his team that, while quite charming, this gimmick is a bit tame. One of his aides suggests that he needs protecting from himself: aWeave got to be careful not to get him injured.a There is method in his malarkey. Much of the battle for the Lib Dems is persuading the national media to pay them any attention. If he has to play the good-for-a-laugh centrist dad to get himself on TV and in the newspapers, he reckons the pratfalls are a sacrifice worth making. You arenat going to see Sir Keir Starmer on a paddleboard. Since no one thinks Sir Ed is going to be prime minister, he doesnat have to do the gravitas thing. He also looks like a man who is enjoying himself, which is more than can be said for the stolid electioneering of his rivals. Continue reading...

The Observer view on the social care crisis: whoever wins the election, it needs addressing urgently Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:30:22 GMT From https: Labour and the Tories are avoiding talking about how to fund the overhaul of a system that is failing the elderly and people with disabilities There is one pressing issue affecting millions of people that has been conspicuous in its absence from the general election campaign so far. The parlous state of social care in England a a system that has been described as being in crisis for well over a decade a is leaving too many older people and those with disabilities without the personal care they need to lead a full and dignified life, with their relatives struggling to fill in as much�as they can. Yet neither of the main political parties seems willing to have an honest conversation with voters about the cost of a care system that caters for an ageing society, and on whose shoulders it should fall.

Blame the system Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:00:22 GMT From https: Under proportional representation, people can be sure that their vote counts Why does Sonia Sodha think it is acceptable to call me a crank (aIt is foolish and self-indulgent for the anti-Starmer left to split the Labour votea)? My views count and deserve respect. I am still a member of the Labour party for one reason only: to work within for reform of our voting system so that everyoneas vote counts (not just those who live in marginal constituencies). My view is that Labour is misguided on the economy, wrong on climate, wrong�on Palestine and lacks vision and hope. That does not make me a�crank. With proportional representation, the Green party could be assured its votes would convert into seats in the House of Commons and would not have to focus on areas where its vote is concentrated enough for a chance to get an MP. People could vote for the party they support, knowing their vote would lead to representation. Blame the voting system, not me. Aileen McLoughlin Bristol Continue reading... Ocado faces FTSE 100 relegation after failing to deliver on pandemic promise Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 07:00:25 GMT From https: Its shares soared as Covid seemed to be changing shopping habits for ever. But they have fallen 50% this year When Ocado entered the FTSE 100 six years ago, it was seen as a flag-bearer for changing consumer tastes, as traditional retailer Marks & Spencer narrowly avoided relegation from the top tier on the same day. This week, those roles look set to be reversed, with M&S riding high and Ocado now expected to drop out of the index of the UKas top companies in the quarterly reshuffle, after its valuation plunged to about APS3bn from a high of APS22bn during the pandemic.

The Beast review a LA(c)a Seydoux mesmerises in wildly ambitious sci-fi romance Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 07:00:23 GMT From https: Bertrand Bonelloas head-spinning Henry James adaptation set in 1910 Paris, 2014 LA and an AI-controlled 2044 casts a dreamlike spell The choking grip of artificial intelligence on humanity is the starting point for Bertrand Bonelloas wildly ambitious, century-spanning, French and English-language story of doomed romance, subconscious fears and pigeon-based symbolism. Itas a theme a AI, that is, not the pigeons a that has been thoroughly mined in cinema of late, perhaps not surprisingly. After all, AI poses one of the more significant threats to the future of humankind. Itas the dystopian sci-fi premise that a literally a writes itself, given half the chance. But the eponymous beast in this story is not AI, and Bonelloas approach to the subject is rather more eccentric and original. Itas certainly the most ambitious of his films, which include the fashion biopic Saint Laurent and The House of Tolerance, about a turn-of-the-century Parisian brothel. Elliptical, enigmatic and infused with a luxuriant melancholy, The Beast wonat be for everyone, but submit to its looping structure and beguiling dream logic, and this extremely loose adaptation of a novella by Henry James weaves a bewitching, if a trifle head-swimming spell. (Itas worth mentioning that the same novella, The Beast in the Jungle, was adapted into another film last year, a version that plays out entirely in a nightclub over several decades, directed by Patric Chiha and starring AnaA-s Demoustier and Tom Mercier.)

Elsewhere, carnival is outshone by church Years ago, I saw a work by the British-Jamaican artist Donald Rodney that I have never forgotten. It was a house of dark shadows on a wall, configured out of hospital X-rays. In front of it sat a faceless figure, not much more than tattered clothes held up by a broken tree that rose like a spine a or a lynching a out of its frayed shirt collar. Scissors, words and hands appeared in pale silhouette against the X-rays, intimating the past like a silent movie. Rodney referred to his Black family tree, his ancestral home. The House That Jack Built was made, quite literally, from medical evidence of the disease that would eventually kill him, as it had been fatal to the 75 million Black souls remembered here: Caribbean victims of sickle cell anaemia.

Spoilt Creatures by Amy Twigg review a haven and hell in the countryside Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 08:00:27 GMT From https: A compelling debut novel set on an all-female commune in rural Kent explores how cults ensnare vulnerable people Amy Twiggas striking debut offers a new twist on the cult narrative. Rather than focusing on a charismatic male leader, Spoilt Creatures (the title comes from a letter Vita Sackville-West wrote to Virginia Woolf) is about one womanas sway over a feminist commune buried in the Kent countryside. Itas 2008. Iris is 32 years old, adrift, her life depressingly adependable and ordinarya.

Mr & Mrs Mahi review a Indian cricketing love story is more than just a boysa own tale Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 06:00:25 GMT From https: Janhvi Kapoor plays a medical student with the prospect of a pro career in the game, with Rajkummar Rao as the husband who coaches her Hindi cinema has thus far spent 2024 in retreat, its commercial failures compounded by a successful run of south Indian crowdpleasers. Timed with Kohli-like precision to arrive at the conclusion of the IPL, this gentle cricket-themed romance may not be enough to overturn the prevailing industry narrative; it comes on like a brisk middle-order batter, fifty compiled after heavier hitters have gone for a duck. Yet director Sharan Sharma locates a palpable emotional heartbeat within the material while following a sound gameplan: deliver two hours of absorbing storytelling with admirable stars on solid form. Like the sport the film describes, this movie business is simpler than it often looks. As with 2019as sly charmer Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga, everything starts with Rajkummar Rao and a bait-and-switch of sorts. It opens as just a boysa story, with Raoas petulant club player Mahendra blowing a crucial trial game by hogging the final-over strike. An equally nondescript career in sporting goods awaits, until his wedding-night recognition that Mahima (Janhvi Kapoor), the distractible med student heas been offloaded onto by exasperated parents, knows cricket better than he does and furthermore bats far better than he ever could. What follows, as Mahendra pivots to coaching and nudges his wife towards the spotlight, is a small monument to partnership building. Continue reading...

Notes on chocolate: the delights of slow-crafted liquorice balls Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 08:00:26 GMT From https: A new flavour from Lakrids is so good it must be shared Many years ago, deep in Bermondsey, which is south of Londonas Thames, I had a boyfriend who supported Leeds United. Because I had no UK team (my team was Juventus thanks to Dino Zoff, the greatest goal keeper of all time), I adopted his team and even had a scarf. Little did I know that I would find myself in Leeds and all its glory so frequently in the future. For me, as a young woman, Leeds was just somewhere up north. My life revolved around London where we lived, the occasional Bedford jaunt where one uncle lived and, because Iam Italian, Italy. The wilds and wonders of the UK were little known to me and I had yet to discover how fabulous Leeds was. This time, I brought a little bit of Copenhagen with me to Leeds. I visited the Lakrids factory two winters ago and this is not my first time writing about this Danish brand. But theyave just launched a new flavour called Milk and Honey, APS19.99, and itas so good I had to share it. Milk and Honey is the newest addition to its Organic Slow Crafted Liquorice range. When I toured the factory I was given a chunk of the slow-crafted stuff and I couldnat let go of it. Itas so toffee-ish, but the sort of chew a woman with fillings can enjoy. Continue reading... Bronzers: 10 of the best Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:30:22 GMT From https: How to achieve that natural, sunkissed finish a without baking in the sun Iam sure bronzers have been explained to everyone a including myself a a million times. What they are, what they do, how to use them and yeta| people still havenat quite grasped exactly how to use them. Or perhaps they just havenat found one that works for them. So letas go back to basics. Sometimes itas easier to start with what something is not as opposed to what it is. The purpose of a bronzer is not to make you bronze. If you are already using a bronzer that is doing this, you have the wrong product (but, of course, if your whole point is to actually look bronze, then good luck with that). A bronzer is essentially a bit of makeup that is supposed to give your skin a boost so it looks less pallid, more alive, happier and healthier. Essentially, it offers a natural, sunkissed finish without the damage that comes from the sun. Choosing the right shade is key a better to start with something subtle and work your way up a and texture also makes a difference. The bronzers on this page a liquid, cream and powder a are formulated in a way that is pliable and therefore makes applying them easier and more or less failsafe a even for the heavy handed.

Wines to capture the taste of summer Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:00:23 GMT From https: Light reds, rosA(c)s and orange wines made by both romantics and pragmatists Theopetra Estate Xinonmavro RosA(c), Meteora, Greece 2022 (APS21.75, corkingwines.co.uk) Wine producers tend to divide into two temperamental camps. The first, cussedly idealistic type doesnat think very much about whoas going to buy their wine until itas time to sell it a they make what they damn well please and only then hope to find customers who share their enthusiasm. The second group is rather more pragmatic: they research potential customers in fine detail before they so much as plant a vine, and everything they do in the vineyard and cellar is in service to what they think the market demands. When it comes to most rosA(c) wine, it looks very much like the second camp is in charge: retailer wine ranges are increasingly filled with dozens of very pale pinks either from, or copying the wildly successful model perfected in, Provence. Maybe the rosA(c) drinking public is getting what the rosA(c)-drinking public wants, but my goodness it makes for some dull wines at times, a sea of indistinguishable pale ordinariness in which pink wines of personality, such as Theopetraas outstanding mandarin-orange-tingling, rippling, ripely stone-fruited Greek rosA(c), stand out like beacons in a safe harbour. Gerard Bertrand Orange Gold, IGP Pays daOc, France 2021 (from APS19, ocado.com; hedonism.co.uk) While I reckon the majority of the most memorable wines Iave had in my life have been made by producers operating at the awine-firsta end of the spectrum, I dare say I drink more wines made by pragmatists. And thereas something to be said for a producer who can spot a trend developed by less obviously commercially minded peers and bring it to a wider audience. The South of France is home to a number of impresarios of the palatable mass market, and itas no surprise that big names such as Jean-Claude Mas and Gerard Bertrand have in recent years added examples of the trendy cult aorangea wine style to their multimillion-bottle vinous empires. Both Bertrandas seriously stylish Orange Gold, with its gentle tannic bite, spice and exotic fruit, and Masas brightly peachy Arrogant Frog Organic Orange 2023 (coming to independent merchants in the UK this summer with an rrp of APS13.50) are deliciously drinkable alternatives to me-too rosA(c) a as, indeed, is Advinias gently apricoty bargain Gros Manseng Vin Orange, Vin de France 2022 (APS8.25, Asda).

Sunday with Joe Wicks: aI might change my outfit three times a daya Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:45:22 GMT From https: The fitness coach talks about tubs of ice-cream, pints of coke, cleaning the dishes and getting the workouts out of the way Up early? Usually 7.30am a not super early. I get up and do my workouts to get them out of the way. Advice for Sunday slobs? If youare hectic and stressed through the week, you should see the weekend as a chance to exercise, prep meals and get an early night, because what you do on the weekend determines how you feel on Monday. Were Sundays always healthy? No. Years ago Iad be coming out of a nightclub at 3am. I met my wife, Rosie, at a rave. I like a day on the sofa watching movies, having a cuddle, but itas not like when we had one baby who slept all day. The kids demand attention. What are you watching? Rosie and I just watched Baby Reindeer. But with the kids a a five-year-old, a four-year-old, a one-year-old and one on the way a weare more likely to be watching Kung Fu Panda or princess films on Disney. What are you eating? I might make an egg and bacon sandwich for breakfast. I love going out for a good Sunday roast with a pint of coke and a sticky toffee pudding. Iam quite greedy and could do a tub of Ben & Jerryas in a single sitting. But not every day! Sunday housework? I have to clean repeatedly. Iall do breakfast, maybe a recipe, share a video, then do luncha| And I work from home. And Rosie works from home, too. I canat keep up with all the cleaning. Sunday arguments? Iam good at cleaning the dishes, the bowls, the cups. But I get bored and lose attention with the knives and forks. And Iall leave clothes in a pile on the chair, because I might change my outfit three times a daya| Sunday me-time? If the sunas shining, Iall go out for an hour or two on the motorbike a Iave got a Triumph cruiser.

The populist former leaderas registration puts pressure on supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, AP reported. In office, Ahmadinejad openly challenged the 85-year-old cleric, and his attempt to run in 2021 was barred by authorities. The firebrand, Holocaust-questioning politicianas return comes at a time of heightened tensions between Iran and the West over Tehranas rapidly advancing nuclear program, its arming of Russia in its war on Ukraine and its wide-reaching crackdowns on dissent.

Iam a very optimistic person and through this all, I always perhaps egomaniacally assumed that everything we did would be successful. At the same time the pressures were immense and for me getting stoned definitely buffered me from a lot of tensions and helped me tunnel- vision more of it. Debbie met Jane Fonda, and one afternoon, Jane and Kris Kristofferson, who were filming Rollover, came to our apartment and we sat around smoking weed and watching The Tin Drum.

As her billion-dollar Eras tour lands in the UK, we trace the making of the Swift universe How to write about the biggest, most written-about star in the world as summer 2024 approaches, and with it the arrival of Taylor Swiftas Eras tour in the UK later this week? We could take cues from the normally level-headed New Yorker. But even they recently threw up their hands and pronounced Swift as beyond review a not because reviewers might get doxxed by overzealous Swifties if they dare give her fewer than five stars, but because Swiftas work might officially be beyond good and evil. The New Yorkeras SinA(c)ad OaSullivan contends that Swift is operating so far outside the norm for pop that assessing her output as mere songs is futile: she has created a Marvel-style universe all her own, in which complex internal references abound and the identity of her enemies, and the 3D chess games she is playing, are pored over across the social mediasphere. Teenage girls and young women, it turns out, are not passive consumers of glittery froth, but supercharged Dylanologists crossed with ninja cryptographers, operating at an emotional pitch on the scale of Beatlemania.

Avoid noise, play mini golf, cast your net wide: Ellie Middletonas neurodivergent dating guide Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 06:00:24 GMT From https: From making small talk to missing social cues, the road to romance can be rocky for those with ADHD and autism. Here are some tips for how to navigate it It is safe to say that, when it comes to dating and relationships, Iave never had an easy ride. Iave always been the one who cares more, the one who is atoo intensea and the one who winds up getting hurt. I wear my heart on my sleeve and, as a relatively newly diagnosed autistic woman with ADHD, there are two words that have followed me around and haunted me throughout my entire life: atoo mucha. Until recently, being atoo mucha was a�source of great shame. I spent my teenage years and early 20s trying to navigate dating and relationships while missing a key piece of information about myself a that I was an autistic ADHDer. I didnat know that I was prone to feeling things much more deeply than most people, or that masking made me a chronic people pleaser. I didnat know that I had a social disability, or that my dopamine-seeking brain might look for stimulation from problematic places (or people). I thought that my too much-ness was just a result of being unlovable, broken or a abad datera. Continue reading...

The beach a Pevensey Bay in East Sussex a is inky black and eerily empty. The sound of slurping seawater seems noisier than usual, the air smells brinier than it does during the day, and the night breeze feels cool and sharp. My previous efforts at night swimming have been unsuccessful a the current too strong, the waves too wild, my imagination too extravagant. But tonight Iam determined. My daughter Imogen shouts to encourage me and the emergence of a full moon steadies my nerves.

I canat remember the exact words, but they amounted, I think, to slightly more than aeccentrica, far less than bizarre. Though he was investigating something else entirely, head noticed that a�valve up in there was slightly odd, definitely unrelated to the issue I was here for, and unlikely to impact my future health in any way. But now that head seen it, he thought it best to tell me. Itas better to know, though, I�asked, right? He shrugged. aSometimes?a he said, non-committal. aItas complicated.a At home, I found myself more aware of my heartbeat, listening for unusual sounds. When, some months later, I had what turned out to be indigestion, I went to the doctor assuming it was that valve, preparing to, perhaps, explode. I have no history of anxiety, had always been largely uninterested in what was happening inside my body - I thought of it in a similar way to the goings on in the vast deep waters of the sea, necessarily unfathomable. But having had this defect revealed to me, I became uncomfortably conscious of all these moving parts, all that could go wrong. Continue reading...

Keir Starmer had spent three days insisting Abbottas candidacy was not in his power, and it was a matter for the partyas ruling national executive committee (NEC), but the row was increasingly distracting from Labouras election campaign. He then said she was free to stand. Itas a great surprise, I think, to everyone, including possibly to Natalie Elphicke herself, that such a hard-right Conservative politician should choose to join Labour.

If teachers and staff here were not on hand to provide their charges with a good breakfast, they know many would arrive with empty stomachs, and then be unable to focus in class.

Iam a very optimistic person and through this all, I always perhaps egomaniacally assumed that everything we did would be successful. At the same time the pressures were immense and for me getting stoned definitely buffered me from a lot of tensions and helped me tunnel- vision more of it. Debbie met Jane Fonda, and one afternoon, Jane and Kris Kristofferson, who were filming Rollover, came to our apartment and we sat around smoking weed and watching The Tin Drum. I would just keep smoking indefinitely, and by then I always had really great pot. I generally leaned towards indica if I could get it. Continue reading... Heart of the batter: my lifelong love affair with fish and chips Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 07:00:24 GMT From https: They have been a hallmark of British life for more than 150 years but, recently, fish and chip shops have faced a battering from rising costs. Here, Daniel Gray reflects on the chippies of his childhood and their power to bind people together They were there, outside the fish and chip shop, all of them. The dad with his household order on a scrappy sliver of paper. The girl of 11 or 12 quietly reciting her own familyas demands, lips miming through lyrics of Mumas mushy peas and little brotheras Vimto. Teenagers documenting the seconds that passed on mobile phones. They argued over whether gravy on chips was disgusting or not without looking up from their screens. A man of 60 or so joined us, rubbed his hands together and addressed my mum: aYou canat beat Chippy Night can you, love?a For a few splendid minutes, the democracy of the chip-shop queue made everything seem all right. Mum agreed with the man. It was she who declared this was our Chippy Night, an electric phrase that still, in my early 40s, elicits a cry of aGet in!a and a cheer from my teenage daughter. All three of us were there now, outside the Fishermanas Wife in York, our nostrils tickled by the smell of batter and vinegar, our eyes drawn to the cosy glow of a fish and chip shop on a dark night. Among the closed shops and curtained windows of Bishopthorpe Road, it gleamed like a gold tooth in a barren mouth. Continue reading... Gerryas Hot Sub Deli, London: aTake it very seriously indeeda a restaurant review Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:00:22 GMT From https: At Gerryas the sandwich is elevated to a noble art, so roll up your sleeves and get stuck in Gerryas Hot Sub Deli, 50 Exmouth Market, London EC1R 4QE. Sandwiches APS8.25-APS13.50, poutine APS6.75-APS10.70, dessert APS4.25, wine APS6.95 a glass, beer APS3.95 a half pint Happiness is a handful of lunch and dressing running down your forearms. Certainly, anything that demands to be eaten alongside a roll of kitchen paper deserves to be taken seriously. By these criteria, which Iave just invented, but now cleave to like holy scripture, the food at Gerryas Hot Subs on Londonas Exmouth Market deserves to be taken very seriously indeed. Lunch there is messy. Prepare to wipe yourself down afterwards or even nip home for a shower. But my, itas good. The fact is, everybody can make themselves a sandwich, but you donat want just anybody to make one for you. The frame is so very tight: some form of bread as vehicle for everything else. It demands a compulsive interest in detail combined with a profound understanding of what will make for a single, multi-textured mouthful. Followed by another and another.

As her billion-dollar Eras tour lands in the UK, we trace the making of the Swift universe How to write about the biggest, most written-about star in the world as summer 2024 approaches, and with it the arrival of Taylor Swiftas Eras tour in the UK later this week? We could take cues from the normally level-headed New Yorker. But even they recently threw up their hands and pronounced Swift as beyond review a not because reviewers might get doxxed by overzealous Swifties if they dare give her fewer than five stars, but because Swiftas work might officially be beyond good and evil. The New Yorkeras SinA(c)ad OaSullivan contends that Swift is operating so far outside the norm for pop that assessing her output as mere songs is futile: she has created a Marvel-style universe all her own, in which complex internal references abound and the identity of her enemies, and the 3D chess games she is playing, are pored over across the social mediasphere. Teenage girls and young women, it turns out, are not passive consumers of glittery froth, but supercharged Dylanologists crossed with ninja cryptographers, operating at an emotional pitch on the scale of Beatlemania.

Avoid noise, play mini golf, cast your net wide: Ellie Middletonas neurodivergent dating guide Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 06:00:24 GMT From https: From making small talk to missing social cues, the road to romance can be rocky for those with ADHD and autism. Here are some tips for how to navigate it It is safe to say that, when it comes to dating and relationships, Iave never had an easy ride. Iave always been the one who cares more, the one who is atoo intensea and the one who winds up getting hurt. I wear my heart on my sleeve and, as a relatively newly diagnosed autistic woman with ADHD, there are two words that have followed me around and haunted me throughout my entire life: atoo mucha. Until recently, being atoo mucha was a�source of great shame. I spent my teenage years and early 20s trying to navigate dating and relationships while missing a key piece of information about myself a that I was an autistic ADHDer. I didnat know that I was prone to feeling things much more deeply than most people, or that masking made me a chronic people pleaser. I didnat know that I had a social disability, or that my dopamine-seeking brain might look for stimulation from problematic places (or people). I thought that my too much-ness was just a result of being unlovable, broken or a abad datera. Continue reading... I donat want to invite my alcoholic dad to my wedding | Ask Philippa Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:00:23 GMT From https: Trust your gut instinct about not having him there. The shame that is creeping in may be about pressure to conform The question Iam a 30-year-old man who works in mental health. Iam due to get married in a few monthsa time. I donat want to invite my father. He and I have been estranged for several years. We have each otheras mobile numbers, but we donat use them. My father has a lifelong alcohol-use disorder (AUD). He was a violent man. When I was 11, my mother managed to divorce him. Since then, we have mostly parted ways, but his side of the family still attempts to guilt-trip me into caring for him. I have grown up, gone to college and am now enjoying my career. I have come to understand more about addiction. I donat feel resentment towards him and tend to see this in a matter-of-fact way. I do not have any affection for this man, who happens to be my father. I have come to see him as any other person with AUD, but one who happens to have fathered me for a short period of time. (I donat have fond memories of the time we shared in the same household.) Continue reading... Night-time is an intoxicating new land: how learning to love the dark eased my grief Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 06:00:23 GMT From https: From magical moonlit swims to midnight hikes and listening to owls, I have embraced my insomnia and discovered the joy of anight journeysa As I slip out of my clothes, my stomach pinches with fear. The beach a Pevensey Bay in East Sussex a is inky black and eerily empty. The sound of slurping seawater seems noisier than usual, the air smells brinier than it does during the day, and the night breeze feels cool and sharp. My previous efforts at night swimming have been unsuccessful a the current too strong, the waves too wild, my imagination too extravagant. But tonight Iam determined. My daughter Imogen shouts to encourage me and the emergence of a full moon steadies my nerves. Within moments I am bobbing about amid glittering moonshine, laughing and gasping, and wondering why it has taken me half a century to do something as simple and magical as a moonlit dip.

Why health trackers can push you off the road to wellness Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 07:30:25 GMT From https: As we know more about our bodies, from wearable tech to data feedback, so our health anxiety increases. So is it better not to know? One thing led to another and then I was topless on a couch and then a cardiologist, his nose wrinkled, was explaining that everything was fine, except my heart was a bita| weird? I canat remember the exact words, but they amounted, I think, to slightly more than aeccentrica, far less than bizarre. Though he was investigating something else entirely, head noticed that a�valve up in there was slightly odd, definitely unrelated to the issue I was here for, and unlikely to impact my future health in any way. But now that head seen it, he thought it best to tell me. Itas better to know, though, I�asked, right? He shrugged. aSometimes?a he said, non-committal. aItas complicated.a At home, I found myself more aware of my heartbeat, listening for unusual sounds. When, some months later, I had what turned out to be indigestion, I went to the doctor assuming it was that valve, preparing to, perhaps, explode. I have no history of anxiety, had always been largely uninterested in what was happening inside my body - I thought of it in a similar way to the goings on in the vast deep waters of the sea, necessarily unfathomable. But having had this defect revealed to me, I became uncomfortably conscious of all these moving parts, all that could go wrong. Continue reading... USA celebrate T20 World Cup debut in style with stirring victory over Canada Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:10:44 GMT From https: * USA 197-3 beat Canada 194-5 by seven wickets in Dallas, Texas * Jones (94*), Gous (65) guide co-hosts to win with 131-run stand Build it, and they will come. The great American cricket experiment got underway on Saturday night, when the USA beat Canada by seven wickets in the opening match of the T20 World Cup at the little ground in Grand Prairie, Texas. And hellas bells if it wasnat, in its own little way, one of the gameas great occasions. A crowd of around 5,000 were treated to a brilliantly freewheeling innings by the USAas Aaron Jones, a pocket-rocket batsman who was born in Queens, and raised in Barbados. Jones clobbered 10 sixes, one of them clean out of the ground, in an undefeated innings of 94 off just 40 balls. Continue reading...

For Daniel Dubois, the journey into the top flight is only just beginning. And the unceasing, unsentimental round-and-round of boxingas glamour division turned in dramatic fashion early Sunday morning in the an-Nafud desert. Wilder, who held the WBCas version of the heavyweight title from 2015 through 2020, suffered a brutal fifth-round knockout at the hands of Zhilei Zhang in the main event of a joint Matchroom-Queenbury card that pitted the stables of British boxingas leading promoters against one another.

Women in Sportas 40 years mark both progress and need to end inequality Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 07:00:26 GMT From https: Charity founded in 1984 highlights that work still needs to be done to eradicate inequality between the sexes in sport In what year were women allowed to compete in an Olympic marathon for the first time? The answer, 1984, may not only come as quite a shock but may help explain why a gamechanging charity was formed that spring. As Women in Sport marks its 40th birthday, its chief executive, Stephanie Hilborne, is eager to celebrate the real progress over the past four decades while also emphasising why anyone assuming that sporting inequality belongs to the past is, sadly, very much�mistaken.

One of a different kind of seeding and growth, and of a sport that has literally made the earth move, across two continents and 11,000 miles, to make this event happen. When the opening batter takes guard in New York on Monday as Sri�Lanka play South Africa in the first competitive game at the venue, he will be standing on a drop-in pitch that started its life more then eight months ago in the South Australia city of Adelaide.

Child sex abuse is all around us a and online it can start with legal porn | Sonia Sodha Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 08:00:26 GMT From https: Men not originally sexually attracted to children sometimes seek more extreme content, research shows Think of a man viewing images or footage of child sexual abuse online, and what comes to mind? Iad bet that for most of us this horrible thought experiment conjures up a Jimmy Savile-style monster sitting in front of the computer screen. But new research from the Lucy Faithfull Foundation, a child sexual abuse prevention charity, highlights how this paradigm does not by itself account for the scale of online offending. Cling to it too hard�and it could hamper our ability�to prevent the abuse of�children. Because child sexual abuse is such a horrific and unthinkable crime, we tend to aothera the men who do it. They wonat be men in our families, workplaces and communities, but evil individuals in other peopleas lives. This is comforting for us adults, but the complacency it engenders puts children at risk. It turns child sexual abuse into something that happens to other peopleas children, not those you love, and if it were happening, of course youad know because you would be able to spot it.

Must we pity put-upon parents sacrificing all to send their offspring to private school? | Catherine Bennett Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 06:00:22 GMT From https: The rightwing media are full of faux outrage about Labouras plans to apply VAT to fees Given that the overwhelming majority of people are state educated and receive zero, or less, benefit from private schools, there is something almost impressive a when it doesnat look actively demented a about current media campaigns to represent the application of VAT to school fees as a�burning election issue. From the first, Labouras proposal to end private schoolsa exemption and spend the revenue on state schools had a dramatic impact on Tory-sympathising news sources previously unbothered about the private sector becoming, as Civitas�summarised it, aroughly twice as expensive in one generationa. Overnight, thanks to Keir Starmeras plan, it was understood that British�private schools, far from�being an ever more exclusive service for the most affluent, are dear to countless immiserated parents whom the Mail, highlighting�their plight, goes so far�as to call apoora. Some of them are so hard up, journalists report, they live in modest houses, drive aold bangersa and, when they donat asacrificea meals out, deny themselves West End shows. The forgoing of one possible purchase for the sake of another is invariably known, in the lexicon of pro-private school coverage, as a sacrifice. Continue reading... Baby boomers are much more worried about the NHS than their pensions, Mr Sunak Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 07:00:27 GMT From https: The Conservatives are trying to bribe them without asking what they actually want One week done, five to go. Hang in there, people. What have we learned? That the Conservatives plan to spray around lots of policies. Fair enough a talking about a zany new idea for the future avoids a conversation about the past (stagnant wages plus ubiquitous potholes mean the public has largely made up its mind about the Conservatives).

You can laugh all you like at Ed Daveyas antics if they restore the Lib Demsa clout Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 07:30:24 GMT From https: The partyas primary ambition is to be once again the third largest force at Westminster Sir Ed Davey doesnat mind acting the silly stunt. If itas Tuesday, heas on Windermere to demonstrate his absence of flair for paddleboarding by falling in multiple times. If itas Wednesday, heas mounting a bike to do a wobbly wheelie as he hurtles down a steep hill in Wales. If itas Thursday, heas careening down a waterslide in Somerset. aHave you got a wetsuit?a is the informal motto of Yellow Hammer�1, his campaign battlebus. I climbed aboard on Friday in the hope of seeing more comedic action from the stuntman. Visiting a target seat in the home counties, the Lib Dem leader plonks on a chefas hat and joins a baking lesson for primary schoolchildren during which he confesses he is no Mary Berry. I protest to his team that, while quite charming, this gimmick is a bit tame. One of his aides suggests that he needs protecting from himself: aWeave got to be careful not to get him injured.a There is method in his malarkey. Much of the battle for the Lib Dems is persuading the national media to pay them any attention. If he has to play the good-for-a-laugh centrist dad to get himself on TV and in the newspapers, he reckons the pratfalls are a sacrifice worth making. You arenat going to see Sir Keir Starmer on a paddleboard. Since no one thinks Sir Ed is going to be prime minister, he doesnat have to do the gravitas thing. He also looks like a man who is enjoying himself, which is more than can be said for the stolid electioneering of his rivals. Continue reading...

The Observer view on the social care crisis: whoever wins the election, it needs addressing urgently Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:30:22 GMT From https: Labour and the Tories are avoiding talking about how to fund the overhaul of a system that is failing the elderly and people with disabilities There is one pressing issue affecting millions of people that has been conspicuous in its absence from the general election campaign so far. The parlous state of social care in England a a system that has been described as being in crisis for well over a decade a is leaving too many older people and those with disabilities without the personal care they need to lead a full and dignified life, with their relatives struggling to fill in as much�as they can. Yet neither of the main political parties seems willing to have an honest conversation with voters about the cost of a care system that caters for an ageing society, and on whose shoulders it should fall.

Blame the system Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:00:22 GMT From https: Under proportional representation, people can be sure that their vote counts Why does Sonia Sodha think it is acceptable to call me a crank (aIt is foolish and self-indulgent for the anti-Starmer left to split the Labour votea)? My views count and deserve respect. I am still a member of the Labour party for one reason only: to work within for reform of our voting system so that everyoneas vote counts (not just those who live in marginal constituencies). My view is that Labour is misguided on the economy, wrong on climate, wrong�on Palestine and lacks vision and hope. That does not make me a�crank. With proportional representation, the Green party could be assured its votes would convert into seats in the House of Commons and would not have to focus on areas where its vote is concentrated enough for a chance to get an MP. People could vote for the party they support, knowing their vote would lead to representation. Blame the voting system, not me. Aileen McLoughlin Bristol Continue reading... Ocado faces FTSE 100 relegation after failing to deliver on pandemic promise Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 07:00:25 GMT From https: Its shares soared as Covid seemed to be changing shopping habits for ever. But they have fallen 50% this year When Ocado entered the FTSE 100 six years ago, it was seen as a flag-bearer for changing consumer tastes, as traditional retailer Marks & Spencer narrowly avoided relegation from the top tier on the same day. This week, those roles look set to be reversed, with M&S riding high and Ocado now expected to drop out of the index of the UKas top companies in the quarterly reshuffle, after its valuation plunged to about APS3bn from a high of APS22bn during the pandemic.

The Beast review a LA(c)a Seydoux mesmerises in wildly ambitious sci-fi romance Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 07:00:23 GMT From https: Bertrand Bonelloas head-spinning Henry James adaptation set in 1910 Paris, 2014 LA and an AI-controlled 2044 casts a dreamlike spell The choking grip of artificial intelligence on humanity is the starting point for Bertrand Bonelloas wildly ambitious, century-spanning, French and English-language story of doomed romance, subconscious fears and pigeon-based symbolism. Itas a theme a AI, that is, not the pigeons a that has been thoroughly mined in cinema of late, perhaps not surprisingly. After all, AI poses one of the more significant threats to the future of humankind. Itas the dystopian sci-fi premise that a literally a writes itself, given half the chance. But the eponymous beast in this story is not AI, and Bonelloas approach to the subject is rather more eccentric and original. Itas certainly the most ambitious of his films, which include the fashion biopic Saint Laurent and The House of Tolerance, about a turn-of-the-century Parisian brothel. Elliptical, enigmatic and infused with a luxuriant melancholy, The Beast wonat be for everyone, but submit to its looping structure and beguiling dream logic, and this extremely loose adaptation of a novella by Henry James weaves a bewitching, if a trifle head-swimming spell. (Itas worth mentioning that the same novella, The Beast in the Jungle, was adapted into another film last year, a version that plays out entirely in a nightclub over several decades, directed by Patric Chiha and starring AnaA-s Demoustier and Tom Mercier.)

Elsewhere, carnival is outshone by church Years ago, I saw a work by the British-Jamaican artist Donald Rodney that I have never forgotten. It was a house of dark shadows on a wall, configured out of hospital X-rays. In front of it sat a faceless figure, not much more than tattered clothes held up by a broken tree that rose like a spine a or a lynching a out of its frayed shirt collar. Scissors, words and hands appeared in pale silhouette against the X-rays, intimating the past like a silent movie. Rodney referred to his Black family tree, his ancestral home. The House That Jack Built was made, quite literally, from medical evidence of the disease that would eventually kill him, as it had been fatal to the 75 million Black souls remembered here: Caribbean victims of sickle cell anaemia.

Spoilt Creatures by Amy Twigg review a haven and hell in the countryside Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 08:00:27 GMT From https: A compelling debut novel set on an all-female commune in rural Kent explores how cults ensnare vulnerable people Amy Twiggas striking debut offers a new twist on the cult narrative. Rather than focusing on a charismatic male leader, Spoilt Creatures (the title comes from a letter Vita Sackville-West wrote to Virginia Woolf) is about one womanas sway over a feminist commune buried in the Kent countryside. Itas 2008. Iris is 32 years old, adrift, her life depressingly adependable and ordinarya.

Mr & Mrs Mahi review a Indian cricketing love story is more than just a boysa own tale Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 06:00:25 GMT From https: Janhvi Kapoor plays a medical student with the prospect of a pro career in the game, with Rajkummar Rao as the husband who coaches her Hindi cinema has thus far spent 2024 in retreat, its commercial failures compounded by a successful run of south Indian crowdpleasers. Timed with Kohli-like precision to arrive at the conclusion of the IPL, this gentle cricket-themed romance may not be enough to overturn the prevailing industry narrative; it comes on like a brisk middle-order batter, fifty compiled after heavier hitters have gone for a duck. Yet director Sharan Sharma locates a palpable emotional heartbeat within the material while following a sound gameplan: deliver two hours of absorbing storytelling with admirable stars on solid form. Like the sport the film describes, this movie business is simpler than it often looks. As with 2019as sly charmer Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga, everything starts with Rajkummar Rao and a bait-and-switch of sorts. It opens as just a boysa story, with Raoas petulant club player Mahendra blowing a crucial trial game by hogging the final-over strike. An equally nondescript career in sporting goods awaits, until his wedding-night recognition that Mahima (Janhvi Kapoor), the distractible med student heas been offloaded onto by exasperated parents, knows cricket better than he does and furthermore bats far better than he ever could. What follows, as Mahendra pivots to coaching and nudges his wife towards the spotlight, is a small monument to partnership building. Continue reading...

Notes on chocolate: the delights of slow-crafted liquorice balls Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 08:00:26 GMT From https: A new flavour from Lakrids is so good it must be shared Many years ago, deep in Bermondsey, which is south of Londonas Thames, I had a boyfriend who supported Leeds United. Because I had no UK team (my team was Juventus thanks to Dino Zoff, the greatest goal keeper of all time), I adopted his team and even had a scarf. Little did I know that I would find myself in Leeds and all its glory so frequently in the future. For me, as a young woman, Leeds was just somewhere up north. My life revolved around London where we lived, the occasional Bedford jaunt where one uncle lived and, because Iam Italian, Italy. The wilds and wonders of the UK were little known to me and I had yet to discover how fabulous Leeds was. This time, I brought a little bit of Copenhagen with me to Leeds. I visited the Lakrids factory two winters ago and this is not my first time writing about this Danish brand. But theyave just launched a new flavour called Milk and Honey, APS19.99, and itas so good I had to share it. Milk and Honey is the newest addition to its Organic Slow Crafted Liquorice range. When I toured the factory I was given a chunk of the slow-crafted stuff and I couldnat let go of it. Itas so toffee-ish, but the sort of chew a woman with fillings can enjoy. Continue reading... Bronzers: 10 of the best Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:30:22 GMT From https: How to achieve that natural, sunkissed finish a without baking in the sun Iam sure bronzers have been explained to everyone a including myself a a million times. What they are, what they do, how to use them and yeta| people still havenat quite grasped exactly how to use them. Or perhaps they just havenat found one that works for them. So letas go back to basics. Sometimes itas easier to start with what something is not as opposed to what it is. The purpose of a bronzer is not to make you bronze. If you are already using a bronzer that is doing this, you have the wrong product (but, of course, if your whole point is to actually look bronze, then good luck with that). A bronzer is essentially a bit of makeup that is supposed to give your skin a boost so it looks less pallid, more alive, happier and healthier. Essentially, it offers a natural, sunkissed finish without the damage that comes from the sun. Choosing the right shade is key a better to start with something subtle and work your way up a and texture also makes a difference. The bronzers on this page a liquid, cream and powder a are formulated in a way that is pliable and therefore makes applying them easier and more or less failsafe a even for the heavy handed. Crucially, the finishes are created to complement real skin tones, which minimises the likelihood of you looking like a toasted orange. 1. Isle of Paradise Sunny Serum APS15.95, lookfantastic.com 2.

Wines to capture the taste of summer Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:00:23 GMT From https: Light reds, rosA(c)s and orange wines made by both romantics and pragmatists Theopetra Estate Xinonmavro RosA(c), Meteora, Greece 2022 (APS21.75, corkingwines.co.uk) Wine producers tend to divide into two temperamental camps. The first, cussedly idealistic type doesnat think very much about whoas going to buy their wine until itas time to sell it a they make what they damn well please and only then hope to find customers who share their enthusiasm. The second group is rather more pragmatic: they research potential customers in fine detail before they so much as plant a vine, and everything they do in the vineyard and cellar is in service to what they think the market demands. When it comes to most rosA(c) wine, it looks very much like the second camp is in charge: retailer wine ranges are increasingly filled with dozens of very pale pinks either from, or copying the wildly successful model perfected in, Provence. Maybe the rosA(c) drinking public is getting what the rosA(c)-drinking public wants, but my goodness it makes for some dull wines at times, a sea of indistinguishable pale ordinariness in which pink wines of personality, such as Theopetraas outstanding mandarin-orange-tingling, rippling, ripely stone-fruited Greek rosA(c), stand out like beacons in a safe harbour. Gerard Bertrand Orange Gold, IGP Pays daOc, France 2021 (from APS19, ocado.com; hedonism.co.uk) While I reckon the majority of the most memorable wines Iave had in my life have been made by producers operating at the awine-firsta end of the spectrum, I dare say I drink more wines made by pragmatists. And thereas something to be said for a producer who can spot a trend developed by less obviously commercially minded peers and bring it to a wider audience. The South of France is home to a number of impresarios of the palatable mass market, and itas no surprise that big names such as Jean-Claude Mas and Gerard Bertrand have in recent years added examples of the trendy cult aorangea wine style to their multimillion-bottle vinous empires. Both Bertrandas seriously stylish Orange Gold, with its gentle tannic bite, spice and exotic fruit, and Masas brightly peachy Arrogant Frog Organic Orange 2023 (coming to independent merchants in the UK this summer with an rrp of APS13.50) are deliciously drinkable alternatives to me-too rosA(c) a as, indeed, is Advinias gently apricoty bargain Gros Manseng Vin Orange, Vin de France 2022 (APS8.25, Asda).

Sunday with Joe Wicks: aI might change my outfit three times a daya Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 05:45:22 GMT From https: The fitness coach talks about tubs of ice-cream, pints of coke, cleaning the dishes and getting the workouts out of the way Up early? Usually 7.30am a not super early. I get up and do my workouts to get them out of the way. Advice for Sunday slobs? If youare hectic and stressed through the week, you should see the weekend as a chance to exercise, prep meals and get an early night, because what you do on the weekend determines how you feel on Monday. Were Sundays always healthy? No. Years ago Iad be coming out of a nightclub at 3am. I met my wife, Rosie, at a rave. I like a day on the sofa watching movies, having a cuddle, but itas not like when we had one baby who slept all day. The kids demand attention. What are you watching? Rosie and I just watched Baby Reindeer. But with the kids a a five-year-old, a four-year-old, a one-year-old and one on the way a weare more likely to be watching Kung Fu Panda or princess films on Disney. What are you eating? I might make an egg and bacon sandwich for breakfast. I love going out for a good Sunday roast with a pint of coke and a sticky toffee pudding. Iam quite greedy and could do a tub of Ben & Jerryas in a single sitting. But not every day! Sunday housework? I have to clean repeatedly. Iall do breakfast, maybe a recipe, share a video, then do luncha| And I work from home. And Rosie works from home, too. I canat keep up with all the cleaning. Sunday arguments? Iam good at cleaning the dishes, the bowls, the cups. But I get bored and lose attention with the knives and forks. And Iall leave clothes in a pile on the chair, because I might change my outfit three times a daya| Sunday me-time? If the sunas shining, Iall go out for an hour or two on the motorbike a Iave got a Triumph cruiser.

Zelenskiy said on Sunday that he met with the US defence secretary, Lloyd Austin, on the sidelines of the Shangri-La Dialogue. aWe discussed whatas key: the defence needs of our country, the strengthening of the Ukrainian air defence system, the F-16 coalition and the preparation of a bilateral security agreement.a A Russian missile strike on residences injured 13 people including eight children in Balakliia town, Kharkiv region, on Saturday, Ukrainian prosecutors said.

In office, Ahmadinejad openly challenged the 85-year-old cleric, and his attempt to run in 2021 was barred by authorities. The firebrand, Holocaust-questioning politicianas return comes at a time of heightened tensions between Iran and the West over Tehranas rapidly advancing nuclear program, its arming of Russia in its war on Ukraine and its wide-reaching crackdowns on dissent.

Iam a very optimistic person and through this all, I always perhaps egomaniacally assumed that everything we did would be successful. At the same time the pressures were immense and for me getting stoned definitely buffered me from a lot of tensions and helped me tunnel- vision more of it. Debbie met Jane Fonda, and one afternoon, Jane and Kris Kristofferson, who were filming Rollover, came to our apartment and we sat around smoking weed and watching The Tin Drum.

As her billion-dollar Eras tour lands in the UK, we trace the making of the Swift universe How to write about the biggest, most written-about star in the world as summer 2024 approaches, and with it the arrival of Taylor Swiftas Eras tour in the UK later this week? We could take cues from the normally level-headed New Yorker. But even they recently threw up their hands and pronounced Swift as beyond review a not because reviewers might get doxxed by overzealous Swifties if they dare give her fewer than five stars, but because Swiftas work might officially be beyond good and evil. The New Yorkeras SinA(c)ad OaSullivan contends that Swift is operating so far outside the norm for pop that assessing her output as mere songs is futile: she has created a Marvel-style universe all her own, in which complex internal references abound and the identity of her enemies, and the 3D chess games she is playing, are pored over across the social mediasphere. Teenage girls and young women, it turns out, are not passive consumers of glittery froth, but supercharged Dylanologists crossed with ninja cryptographers, operating at an emotional pitch on the scale of Beatlemania.

Avoid noise, play mini golf, cast your net wide: Ellie Middletonas neurodivergent dating guide Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 06:00:24 GMT From https: From making small talk to missing social cues, the road to romance can be rocky for those with ADHD and autism. Here are some tips for how to navigate it It is safe to say that, when it comes to dating and relationships, Iave never had an easy ride. Iave always been the one who cares more, the one who is atoo intensea and the one who winds up getting hurt. I wear my heart on my sleeve and, as a relatively newly diagnosed autistic woman with ADHD, there are two words that have followed me around and haunted me throughout my entire life: atoo mucha. Until recently, being atoo mucha was a�source of great shame. I spent my teenage years and early 20s trying to navigate dating and relationships while missing a key piece of information about myself a that I was an autistic ADHDer. I didnat know that I was prone to feeling things much more deeply than most people, or that masking made me a chronic people pleaser. I didnat know that I had a social disability, or that my dopamine-seeking brain might look for stimulation from problematic places (or people). I thought that my too much-ness was just a result of being unlovable, broken or a abad datera. Continue reading...

The sound of slurping seawater seems noisier than usual, the air smells brinier than it does during the day, and the night breeze feels cool and sharp. My previous efforts at night swimming have been unsuccessful a the current too strong, the waves too wild, my imagination too extravagant. But tonight Iam determined. My daughter Imogen shouts to encourage me and the emergence of a full moon steadies my nerves.

I canat remember the exact words, but they amounted, I think, to slightly more than aeccentrica, far less than bizarre. Though he was investigating something else entirely, head noticed that a�valve up in there was slightly odd, definitely unrelated to the issue I was here for, and unlikely to impact my future health in any way. But now that head seen it, he thought it best to tell me. Itas better to know, though, I�asked, right? He shrugged. aSometimes?a he said, non-committal. aItas complicated.a At home, I found myself more aware of my heartbeat, listening for unusual sounds. When, some months later, I had what turned out to be indigestion, I went to the doctor assuming it was that valve, preparing to, perhaps, explode. I have no history of anxiety, had always been largely uninterested in what was happening inside my body - I thought of it in a similar way to the goings on in the vast deep waters of the sea, necessarily unfathomable.

Starmer pledges to cut net migration if Labour wins general election a UK politics live Date: Sun, 02 Jun 2024 08:42:25 GMT From https: Labour leader says levels have agot to come downa but declines to specify a figure or timeline Sign up for our Election Edition newsletter The health secretary, Victoria Atkins, has suggested Labour is having a abit of an identity crisisa, referring to Natalie Elphickeas controversial defection to the party and the infighting that erupted last week over issues around Diane Abbottas selection. Keir Starmer had spent three days insisting Abbottas candidacy was not in his power, and it was a matter for the partyas ruling national executive committee (NEC), but the row was increasingly distracting from Labouras election campaign. He then said she was free to stand. Itas a great surprise, I think, to everyone, including possibly to Natalie Elphicke herself, that such a hard-right Conservative politician should choose to join Labour. But then we see this week from Labour that Sir Keir Starmer canat work out whether Diane Abbott, one of his longest-standing and trailblazing Members of parliament, should in fact be a Member of parliament. He canat work it out. So, it shows that there is a bit of an identity crisis within Labour. Continue reading...

Here, Daniel Gray reflects on the chippies of his childhood and their power to bind people together They were there, outside the fish and chip shop, all of them. The dad with his household order on a scrappy sliver of paper. The girl of 11 or 12 quietly reciting her own familyas demands, lips miming through lyrics of Mumas mushy peas and little brotheras Vimto. Teenagers documenting the seconds that passed on mobile phones. They argued over whether gravy on chips was disgusting or not without looking up from their screens. A man of 60 or so joined us, rubbed his hands together and addressed my mum: aYou canat beat Chippy Night can you, love?a For a few splendid minutes, the democracy of the chip-shop queue made everything seem all right.
