1. Jeremy Corbyn Is Getting More Radical, Not Less.

Harold Wilson once said of Tony Benn that ‘he immatures with age’. But for Jeremy Corbyn, the older he gets, the more he sounds like a Millennial radical.

In the Trump era it may seem like posturing, showmanship and fake news are more prevalent than ever before.

Like many of us, I’ve been gripped by the BBC six-part thriller Bodyguard, featuring Richard Madden’s exceptional performance as DS David Budd. This is a character that takes us to another level in terms of portraying the impact that trauma can have on a person’s life and career.
