Just how much longer is monarchy likely to survive? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
TOMORROW marks four years since the death of Queen Elizabeth. Thirty years before, she declared 1992 to be her annus horribilis – Latin for horrible year – and there have been further tough times for the royals since she died. So what is polling saying about support for the monarchy and how long is the institution likely to survive? The events making up the annus horribilis included the publication of intimate photographs of Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, and Texan oil millionaire, Steve Wyatt
Is this the way to reduce the support for the far right? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
ACROSS the length and breadth of the so-called United Kingdom in the last two years there have been more than 450 anti-immigrant and anti-asylum protests. The big kicking off point was the killing of three children in Southport. Often under the spurious banner of “protecting our women and girls”, many of these protests have been outside hotels and hostels where asylum seekers have been living.

The big difference will be that whereas Starmer was an albatross around the neck of Scottish Labour, as the recent Scottish Parliament elections showed, Burnham will be a disrupter of a different kind, potentially creating problems for the SNP, SNP leader and First Minister, John Swinney, and the case for independence on three fronts. The
Where has the class divide gone as a political issue? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
IN the run-up to and since both the 2024 Westminster General Election and the 2026 Scottish Parliament election, we have heard an awful lot from politicians from many different parties pledging to put “country before party”. Launching Labour’s General Election manifesto, Keir Starmer summarised his strategy for governing as “country first, party second”. He has continued with this framing to such an extent that it has become something of a slogan of his. SNP leader and First Minister John Swinne
