7 d. ago Yes, Keir Starmer is Britain’s most unpopular PM ever. That could liberate him | Polly Toynbee

Forget the public vitriol and use the next four years to get things done – first and foremost, whatever it takes to stop ReformWhat hell is the life of politics. Look around that cabinet table: each person is confronted with near impossible-portfolios without the means to do what they know is needed. After another nightmare week, many in the dark watches must ask themselves why the hell they gave their lives to this brutally thankless task.Their inheritance was even more ruinous than feared: they were bequeathed landmines, dishonest traps and gaping holes. Brexit is emerging as even more economically crippling than expected, now losing the exchequer £80bn a year. They are blighted by bad luck: the Trump destroyer landed on their watch. What worse mishap than a prison officer setting free a refused asylum-seeker sex offender? Small boat arrivals feel unstoppable. An unfortunate deputy leadership election right now was bound to give Keir Starmer a bruising. The 11% vote share at the C...

2 w. ago Scouts’ honour: ‘I think many believe the job is like Football Manager’

Watching footballers for a living is not as glamorous as it may seem and, as this book extract reveals, the job is changing with technology“I once travelled from Greece to Denmark to scout a goalkeeper. I went straight from the airport to the stadium, only for him to face zero shots. After away fans rioted, the match was abandoned, and the police had to intervene. My phone battery died, and I only made it to my hotel late at night, just in time for four hours of sleep before flying back. Despite the chaos, that game still provided valuable insights: I saw first-hand how much the home fans adored the player and observed his leadership and quality, even if all his shot-stopping happened in the warm-up.”Here, then, is the life of those involved in one of the most misunderstood aspects of the game. Their stories reveal a side of football that rarely makes headlines – one of adaptability, forbearance, and sometimes, outright audacity. Continue reading...

3 w. ago ‘It’s like a scene from a movie’: Christian Barroso’s best phone picture

On the 26th floor of a São Paulo skyscraper, the Brazilian photographer captured a stranger in a moment of solitudeAfter being recognised at the Mobile Photography awards 2020, Christian Barroso travelled from his home in Rio de Janeiro to São Paulo for the exhibition of winning images. He was joined by three friends and, after seeing his work on display, they headed to Farol Santander, a skyscraper in the city centre housing a museum, galleries and observation deck.“The exhibition was delayed until the summer of 2021 because of the Covid pandemic, so we were living in the first moments of ‘normal’ life at the time,” Barroso says. They stopped for a snack at a cafe on the 26th floor, and Barroso recalls the atmosphere as “somewhat melancholic. Despite the large space, the feeling was one of solitude, highlighted by this woman sitting alone, and the long shadows.” Continue reading...
