David Copperfield and the politics of diversity
Diverse casting of period adaptations is a risk worth taking
Alexandre de Moraes is no hero
Don’t make X an ex-X
Why Tony Hinchcliffe’s jokes didn’t work

Farewell to Larry Siedentop
The great political philosopher, Oxford don, and sage defender of Western liberalism
Donald Trump should not heed the call of foreign policy hawks
The world is not split neatly between good guys and bad guys
War, peace and city streets
How English towns survived the Blitz and entered the modern world
You can’t legislate away hatred
Don’t just do something, stand there
The bastard son of democratic aestheticisation
How Donald Trump made populism funny
Why shouldn’t we discriminate against people’s beliefs?
It is not the same as discriminating on the basis of race or sex
Rime of the ancient Tory mariner
The lesson of the Conservative conference? Keep your kids away from politics
Stick ‘em up
Has the culture war been won?
Worthy instrument
