John Healey quitting defence puts a time bomb under No 10. He is a loyalist: this is no ordinary departure

The Guardian - UK

Let this be a warning – if Europe worries about Trump, it has even more reason to fear JD Vance

His toxic Henry Nowak intervention fits a pattern. Vance has hard-right views, a disdain for European society – and he may yet become president, says Guardian columnist Gaby Hinsliff

The Guardian - UK

Farage says woke kills – and the real, hard questions we could be asking are swamped by the culture war

What we must learn from the murders of Henry Nowak in Southampton and Barnaby Webber in Nottingham is that kneejerk assumptions either way are dangerous, says Guardian columnist Gaby Hinsliff

We know what former SNP chief Peter Murrell bought with £400,000 of embezzled funds. What I’d like to know is why

If Labour didn’t exist, would you invent it? Streeting, Rayner, Burnham – you need to tell us why

The Guardian - UK

Will Starmer’s old Labour tribute strategy rescue him from the abyss? Probably not, but there’s a logic to it

Gordon Brown and Harriet Harman offer experience and political craft, but to reap the benefits, the PM himself will have to change, says Guardian columnist Gaby Hinsliff

The Guardian - UK

If Labour now decides the PM is no longer up to the job, there’s just one problem: neither is anyone else

Whoever leads Britain through the next three years may have to navigate a recession, even a war. The way we choose that person needs an urgent overhaul, says Guardian columnist Gaby Hinsliff

The Guardian - UK

My advice to Hannah Spencer? Before calling out MPs’ boozing, try to understand the reasons behind it

Letters: Readers respond to an article by Gaby Hinsliff in which she questions whether the Southport killer’s parents share responsibility for his crime

The Guardian - UK

Are Axel Rudakubana’s parents responsible for his terrible crime? It’s a question many families will fear to answer

Children could have been saved, had some of the adults involved acted differently. To protect lives in future, families must be able – and willing – to seek help, says Guardian columnist Gaby Hinsliff

The Guardian - UK

Trump badly needs a way out of this war. Right now, that’s everyone’s problem

The looming shortage of medicines and fertiliser is only going to get worse with the latest US blockade. Europe and the UK need to step up diplomatically, says Guardian columnist Gaby Hinsliff
