32 h. ago The Guardian view on food and farming: climate chaos hits crops hard – and that should worry everyone | Editorial

Last year’s floods have been followed by heatwaves. Ministers must throw their weight behind resilient, adaptable agricultureBritish farmers are, of course, not the only people who are suffering from the effects of this summer’s heatwaves. Across Europe and the Middle East, record-breaking temperatures are threatening lives as well as livelihoods. France has experienced its largest wildfire since 1949, while across Europe an estimated 500,000 hectares of land have burned.But farmers are particularly vulnerable to extreme weather, which has a direct impact on crop yields. So reports of a second consecutive year in which food growers in parts of the UK are seeing dramatic falls in production should concern the British public.

65 h. ago ‘Your work changed the course of my entire life’: novelist Douglas Stuart meets painter Jenny Saville

He was a struggling 16-year-old when he first saw her paintings. Now, the Booker prize-winning author of Shuggie Bain sits down with the record-breaking artist to talk early success, bad reviews, and the joys of making artIn the summer of 1992, I was a 16-year-old who was watching his mother drink herself to death. I had a desperate need to find work and somewhere to stay, and so remaining in education didn’t seem like a possibility. I had two teachers who saw how I was struggling. They dreamed a future for me that I could never have imagined for myself. One evening they took me up to the degree show at the Glasgow School of Art, and there I came face to face with the paintings of Jenny Saville.The power of that encounter has never left me. Those images were fierce and confrontational. A few months after the degree show, I lost my mother to her addiction.

Just-announced album already looks like it will make singer and partner Travis Kelce hysterically famous at a new level – and that may be precisely their planTaylor Swift’s podcast interview with her American football player boyfriend, Travis Kelce, this week yielded plenty of tidbits for fans.
