BAD-BOY SATIRIST HANOCH LEVIN IS QUITE POSSIBLY ISRAEL’S GREATEST PLAYWRIGHT 

Gerald Malone | Culture June 21, 2024

WILL TRUMP ATTEND THE FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE? DON’T COUNT ON IT

David Waywell | US Politics June 20, 2024

Donald Trump rarely turns down an opportunity to be in the spotlight. But he
doesn’t have a great attendance record when it comes to debates, for good
reason.


FORGET THE POLITICS, IT’S TIME FOR THE BANK OF ENGLAND TO START CUTTING RATES

Maggie Pagano | Economics June 20, 2024

The Old Lady needs a trim. There are two excellent economic reasons for going
ahead with a cut now.

Jenny Hjul | UK Politics

The electorate can hopefully look forward to a third opposition party focused on
making Britain better not breaking it up.

ExxonMobil is playing hardball with its control of giant oil fields off the
coast of Guyana.


D-DAY: THE LAST GREAT ANNIVERSARY WITH SURVIVING VETERANS

Anthony Peters | History

The scope of the D-Day undertaking is beyond our imagination. As is the
sacrifice of the young men who landed on that day.


A LIVERPOOL CEREMONY FALLS VICTIM TO SOUL-CRUSHING CORPORATE MARKETING

David Waywell | UK

election.
