2 h. ago There are good guys and then there is Lewis Moody – MND has cruelly singled out the bravest of men | Robert Kitson

Moody’s diagnosis with the incurable disease MND at the age of 47 is desperate news for all those who know and love himBack when he was captaining England at the 2011 Rugby World Cup, Lewis Moody went canyon swinging near Queenstown in New Zealand. Despite being utterly fearless on the pitch he was not brilliant with heights. That day, he wrote in his autobiography, was “the most terrifying experience of my life”. Or at least it was. A fortnight ago, he and his family were plunged into something infinitely scarier.Moody’s diagnosis with the incurable disease MND at the age of 47 is, first and foremost, desperate news for all those who know and love him. There are good guys and then there is “Moodos”, about whom nobody in rugby has a bad word. Cruel doesn’t come close to describing it. Continue reading...

2 h. ago Paris FC are doing everything right to challenge PSG’s hegemony in France

Paris FC have the money and long-term strategy to knock the city’s closest of close neighbours off their perchBy Get French Football NewsA revolution is quietly taking place just 44 metres away from the Parc des Princes, and it could alter the footballing landscape in the French capital. “Paris is Magic,” reads the slogan inside the Paris Saint-Germain stadium. Those three words reflect the monopoly that PSG have held in the capital in recent decades. PSG is Paris; Paris is PSG. But for how much longer?There is no such slogan pasted atop the Stade Jean-Bouin, Paris FC’s new home, where they swatted aside Lorient 2-0 on Friday, a result that has taken them up to eighth in Ligue 1. They are just six points behind their closest of close rivals, not that challenging PSG is their current reality. What is taking hold at Paris FC is less of a Great Leap Forward and more of a Cultural Revolution as the Arnault family, who bought the club at the end of last year, place their pawns and mould ...

2 h. ago ‘A club nobody wanted to be a part of’: Families of Americans killed by Israel face uphill climb to justice

Dozens of American citizens have been killed by Hamas and Israel – but the US government has taken a very different approach to the latterWithin hours after they were told that Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi had been killed by an Israeli sniper while at a protest in the West Bank last year, her family was on a phone call with the parents of Rachel Corrie, a 23-year-old activist who was crushed to death by an Israeli army bulldozer in Gaza more than two decades ago.The families were introduced by a mutual contact in Washington state, where both Corrie and 26-year-old Eygi had lived. There were other parallels in their stories: Corrie was protesting against the demolition of a Palestinian family’s home in Rafah when a soldier drove over her; Eygi was at a protest against settlement expansion near Nablus. Both had traveled to the region with the International Solidarity Movement, a group that for years has brought foreign activists to stand with Palestinians against Israel’s occupation. An Israeli ...

Drone albums, vampire plays, Charlotte Church duets the Londoner has an inspiringly odd CV. She explains how the disrupted experience of Black daily life fills her workThe ever-viral hip-hop video platform On the Radar has hosted freestyles from some of the biggest artists in the world. Drake, Central Cee and Ice Spice have each graced the channel with their presence, yet throughout its seven-year history, few acts have gone in quite like Klein. This time last year, the south London artist spiralled through a procession of evocative flexes, rasped through Auto-Tune over a mind-expanding loop of pitch-shifted wailing, then slung a black guitar over her shoulder to shred through a lacerating noise solo with a joyous smile.“People were trying to beat me up!” she says, giggling as she reflects on her appearance. “I was just being myself! Some people liked it, some people didn’t, some people hated it so much they would send me emails. For someone to feel that so viscerally as to send me ...
