Sunak’s net zero U-turn is so toxic that it’s united Green MPs and car manufacturers against him | Caroline Lucas

Citeste mai mult

With climate change a top priority for the public, surely time is up for a prime minister who couldn’t seem to care less? Caroline Lucas is the Green MP for Brighton Pavilion It’s quite a moment when a Green party MP finds herself on the same side of an argument as the chair of Ford UK – but here we are. Claims reported by the BBC yesterday evening that Rishi Sunak is planning to weaken some of the government’s key climate commitments have managed to unite businesses, the energy sector,...

The Guardian view on Nagorno-Karabakh: a ceasefire is needed, but it’s not a solution | Editorial

Citeste mai mult

A halt in bombing isn’t enough to end the humanitarian crisis. But a deal between Azerbaijan and Armenia looks even harder to reach Seven thousand people were killed in just six weeks in the brutal war in the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh three years ago. So when Azerbaijan launched a new military offensive on Tuesday, many feared the worst. About 100 people were reportedly killed in the first few hours. Within a day, a ceasefire was announced. The agreement includes the disbanding of t...

In the Russell Brand scandal, let’s remember the women | Letters

Citeste mai mult

Too often, the women at the heart of these stories are stripped of their humanity and treated as if they have no worth, writes one reader. Plus letters from Hettie Hope, Angela Donnelly, Michele Roberts and Linda Karlsen I imagine reading the current coverage of the allegations against Russell Brand is difficult for those who have had similar experiences. It certainly is for me. Reading Marina Hyde’s article (The brave victims of Russell Brand’s misogyny deserve full support. This time, let...

Bring back the dog licence – with a test | Letter

Citeste mai mult

Owners could be given penalty points for poor dog behaviour, and have their licence taken away for biting, writes Bernie Leadbeater Almost all dogs are potentially dangerous, and all dogs can be a nuisance (The American bully XL furore is a stark reminder of the uneasy bond between dogs and humans, 14 September). Yet dogs can be an absolute joy to have around. The difference is not in the breed of dog but the behaviour of the owners. A responsible and knowledgable owner ensures a well-trained d...

Shinty allowed us to break hockey’s rules

Citeste mai mult

Sue Elliott and Margaret Astill recall playing the Highlands sport in English schools in the 50s and 60s I was surprised to read that women and girls are enjoying a “breakthrough” year in the Highland sport of shinty (Report, 16 September). I was playing “shitty shinty”, as we called it, at my secondary modern in Bognor in about 1966. We were told it was Irish. “Shitty” because it was dangerous: you could wield the stick at head height, which is against the rules in more ladylike ho...

Rune with a view: a mason’s lofty lecture | Brief letters

Set it in stone | Smoky tea flavour | A dog’s life sentience | Starmer’s shoes | Starmer’s success During recent work on the bells and tower of St Michael’s church in Bishop’s Stortford, a message from 1820 was rediscovered: “This tower was rebilt by parish exspence AD 1819-20 but a meen parish and gave the workman nothing to drink”. It’s not visible from ground level, but I hope it relieved his feelings. I wonder if the recent workmen have left a message for posterity (Letters,...

See Sunak’s green retreat for what it is: a ruthless short-term electoral gamble | Martin Kettle

Citeste mai mult

The PM has calculated that he can gain points with his party membership and skew byelection results. But at what cost? Rishi Sunak’s retreat from the government’s net zero pledges triggers large- and small-scale conclusions alike. These range from a message about the future of the planet’s place in the prime minister’s priorities, at one extreme, to the anxiety it betrays about how to manage his way through his first party conference as Conservative leader, next month, at the other. Nev...

Wrexham fans, decide: how do you like your football – dignified or Disneyfied? | Simon Childs

The club’s Hollywood ‘fairytale’ highlights the predicament of grassroots clubs trying to survive in the modern game In future generations, bright-eyed, football-mad children on their first visit to the Racecourse Ground in north Wales will ask: “Why are we Wrexham fans, Mum?” And they’ll be told: “Your father was a Wrexham fan, and your father’s father, and your father’s father’s father … well, your father’s father’s father watched Welcome to Wrexham with Ryan Reynold...

War in Ukraine is revealing a new global order – and the ‘power south’ is the winner | Nathalie Tocci

Long-held resentments of the west are surfacing as world relations rebalance in favour of economic powerhouses like India and China It came as an unpleasant surprise to many in Europe and North America that so many countries – many more than the 30 or so that abstained in UN votes condemning Russia for its invasion of Ukraine – refused to go along with sanctions on Putin’s Russia. Forty countries sanction Russia, but two-thirds of the world’s population live in countries that do not. Th...

The media needs to cover the climate crisis as seriously as it covered Covid | Mark Hertsgaard and Kyle Pope

Citeste mai mult

With some exceptions, the news industry is still not responding to the true scale and danger of global heating In much of what we see, hear and read, the climate crisis has become inescapable. On Netflix, Don’t Look Up spent weeks as the most-streamed movie ever. Pop star Billie Eilish sings about hills burning in California. At the bookstore, climate fiction has become a genre of its own, while Jeff Goodell’s The Heat Will Kill You First, a harrowing nonfiction account of what life on a wa...

Europe talks to itself in many languages. That’s why English is vital to its democracy | Timothy Garton Ash

Citeste mai mult

English is still the continent’s most widely used language – and the Guardian’s new digital Europe edition is a major addition to the Eurosphere “How can anyone govern a country with 246 different kinds of cheese?” Charles de Gaulle, the founding president of France’s Fifth Republic, is said to have asked. As it prepares for European elections next year, the European Union faces an even bigger challenge: how to run a multinational democratic community with 24 official languages. And...

Dear drivers, steady as you go at 20mph. And welcome to the future | Christian Wolmar

A new speed limit in Wales is the latest policy intended to prioritise people’s needs over cars. I believe that’s the way to go The foot soldiers fighting back against the “war on the motorist” have been given plenty of ammunition lately. As low-traffic neighbourhoods continue to be adopted across the UK and Ulez has been expanded to greater London, the latest policy to provoke their ire is the imposition of a 20mph speed limit in residential areas across Wales. Out in the real world, o...

France’s schools are in crisis – and it has nothing to do with pupils’ dress

Citeste mai mult

Chronic underfunding has led to a record exodus of teachers but the government is using populist policy as a cheap distraction Shortly before schools opened for the new term in September, Unicef France issued an alert that almost 2,000 pupils were homeless, twice as many as in January 2022. The UN’s warning was timely, because parts of the state education system in France are in crisis – if not entirely dysfunctional. Yet what made the headlines wasn’t such urgent challenges, but a manufa...

Getting a better Brexit deal means making Britain European again | Rafael Behr

Citeste mai mult

An improvement on the Johnson model will be available only to a PM who can counter decades of Eurosceptic mythology A perverse consensus is emerging in British politics that simultaneously accepts and denies that Brexit has failed. The prime minister and the leader of the opposition are both shopping for European policy in the narrow aisle between economic grasp of the problem and political fear of the remedy. No one likes the status quo. Enthusiasts for Boris Johnson’s deal lament that its t...

The Guardian view on Canada and India: from partnership to public claims of a killing | Editorial

Whatever the truth about the murder of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, the row shows that building relationships with New Delhi won’t be easy Canada made waves when it recently announced an inquiry into potential foreign election interference. Its tanking relations with China have been watched closely, not least for how they reflect upon other western countries’ dealings with Beijing. Russia’s activities were also under scrutiny. Fewer people noticed that ministers also cited the potential role of ...
