Accusations of classism chime with my experience 20 years ago. So all hail the Bristol graduate awarding state schools red plaques, says Guardian columnist Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett

As politics fragments, Andy Burnham’s promise to overhaul the electoral system is welcome – but what comes next is far from settled

'The UN General assembly was subjected to the farce of the UAE, the key player in Sudan’s war, piously preaching about how the Sudanese people deserve peace, while its leaders are accused of arming the RSF, itself accused of genocide and ethnic cleansing' theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Ukraine, Iran, Palestine and Sudan: it has so many problems to confront and fails to do so. Seen up close, it is a study in stasis and decline, says Guardian columnist Nesrine Malik

The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. A new interpretation but featuring many of Sparks’ best lines. Strong performances all round: it took a while to get used to ‘this’ JB, but she was excellent, as was Mrs Mackay. A crème de la crème of plays. 🎭 (10 Oct) @lyceumedinburgh

Barnum: the Circus Musical - ⭐️⭐️. I liked Barnum as a character, the circus acts and the band. But the show jumped around and the stage felt too busy. The family behind chatting didn’t help. G didn’t come back for the second half. Some you win, others you lose! 🎭 @captheatres

The Steamie - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. This show’s new to me but it’s clearly a well-kent Scottish classic. Great storytelling, humour & singing, including the nonsense of the Mince Monologue. Beneath the laughter, stories of life as a wummin, loneliness, youth and age. 🎭 (9 Oct) @captheatres

Hello Bryan, King's Cross is managed by Network Rail and we don't have access to their lost property system I'm afraid, please make sure you report this to lostproperty.org and the team will make contact with you to arrange collection.

Hay Fever - ⭐⭐⭐⭐. A fun night of Noel Coward wit, elegance & 'posh' humour. A terrific cast, with Richard E. Grant & Christine Baranski two of many award nominees / winners, & Charles Edwards a particular standout for me. Amusing, stylish and chaotic - and all on one set. 🎭

Evening @LNER - it looks like I left my iPad on 0612 from Dunbar this morning. The FindMy app suggests it’s now in Kings Cross station. I’ve reported it lost online and I’ll call tomorrow at 9am. Hoping I’ll be able to collect it before the 1530 to Edinburgh. 🤞 🤪

It’s something akin to a quiet earthquake: home nations jointly declaring their wish to be freed from English domination. A big move needs a big response, says Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins

We asked you what you most wanted to put to our Guardian columnist. You responded in droves, querying her ‘beef’ with Burnham, who she thinks is this generation’s Hugh Grant, and what she really...
