The leading historian of conflict says the atrocities in Ukraine are rooted in a uniquely brutal mindset that can be traced back centuries. And Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump appear fully to embrace the Soviet perspective on official cruelty. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/11...

#AHistoryOfEnglandIn25Poems is one of the best poetry books of 2025 in the Financial Times / FT Weekend! This makes me so happy - especially as it's most definitely a #poetry #book for poetry sceptics. If you love #history, why not have a look and see where poetry can take us...?

A strong immigration system doesn't need to be a cruel one.
It shouldn't need saying - but refugees & asylum seekers are real people, fleeing war and persecution.
