The whole briefing circus around Michael Carrick and his future is one of the most ungrateful, classless and ungratifying spectacles I have seen . As terminal as Carrick’s position appears, he deserves a clean execution , and this,distinctly, is not.

Freedom of Movement is NOT an unconditional right under EU law: it is conditional on finding a job or being self-sufficient i.e. not being a burden on taxpayers. Otherwise there is no right to stay.
This analysis, off the back of the Everton match, is a bit too harsh. We were quite effective and aggressive going forward. A little unlucky not to score first, maybe finishing could be sharper. We are too open defensively, especially on the break so that does need sorting.
Newcastle are not a very good team I’m afraid. They are so easy to play through and do nothing with the ball when they have it. Their chances come from chaos and turnovers. As soon as Everton took the lead this was tailor made for them to keep it tight, Invite Newcastle on to them and counter. And they’ve scored another two. Basic stuff #nufc

This week I've written our US cover story on Latino and Asian-American voters, who are crucial swing voters in Tuesday's mid-terms. In 2024, they made up 14% of voters but 24% of vote-switchers. Now it seems they've soured on Trump and Republicans: economist.com/united-states/…

Simon Heffer’s review of Liz Truss’s new book Bank Job in the Telegraph.
‘Of all the books I have ever reviewed that purported to offer a serious thesis, this is without question the most deranged. If you are seeking a Christmas present for someone you really don’t like, give them a copy.’

Goodwin makes several misleading claims
- Italy asylum processing in Albania: if granted refugee status would be transferred to Italy. (Reform say they are abolishing asylum: this isn't their plan)
- Denmark passed a 2021 law. It has no partners yet.
- Germany has no scheme
