After a fun, fulfilling and busy 12 months on London Playbook, I'm chuffed to be joining POLITICO's live news team as a reporter writing breaking news stories as well as in-depth features. Needless to say, in an election year, there will be plenty to cover. I can't wait to (1/3)

Amazing that it's already been a year since this superb adaptation was released - such a good tribute to the original book. I hope it introduced audiences to David Nicholls' other moving, emotive tomes including 'Us', 'Starter for Ten' and 'The Understudy.'

A superb read … fascinating ‘fly on the wall’ reporting about how to lead - and rebuild - a party after a huge election rout. Great insights on the many logistical challenges (not to mention political rivalries) and, perhaps most importantly, whether the public is listening.

As you stroll into the weekend, here's my @POLITICOEurope writeup of Karen Pierce's next gig. The ex-ambassador to America is swapping Washington for the West Balkans ahead of a UK-led summit later this year.

Exactly two years after I joined @POLITICOEurope, here's my latest long read about why Britain's handover of the Chagos Islands has pleased nobody. From the White House to China hawks and the Chagossian people, almost everyone is unhappy with the deal.

Interesting that the rule of law and international law are top of the list - the government are keen to be the antithesis to when the Internal Market Act broke international law in a "specific and limited way". Critics argue realpolitik usurps this.
These are the legal arguments on the consequences of the UK not reaching an agreement with Mauritius over the Chagos Islands. They're all speculative, imprecise and weak. "Grave reputational harm" is far more likely for the UK if it demeans itself to this extent.

Latest @POLITICOEurope #PMQs scorecard analysis from yours truly - Badenoch slammed the Chagos Islands deal and the government's negotiating strategy more broadly ... but her scattergun approach let her down and allowed Starmer to brush off her attacks.

Important caveat given yesterday's poll - politics is nothing if not volatile.

Just finished 'Brian and Maggie' - a fascinating exploration into long form political interviews of old, the amount of preparation required and the relationship between journalists and politicians. Well done @mrJamesGraham, @RobBurl and all the team.

Reminds me of a 2005 BBC modern day reinterpretation of ‘The Taming of the Shrew’ starring Shirley Henderson as a frontline politician hoping to become Leader of the Opposition.
EXC: In 2017, Shakespearean actress Leonie Mellinger received a call from Keir Starmer's office. "Wooden" on stage, he needed help with his speeches. For four years the speaking coach was the secret member of his inner circle. Story w @Gabriel_Pogrund

Stumbled across another earworm - most memorable from the genius that is ‘The Devil Wears Prada’ but a top music video too. Imagine it takes many back to the noughties.
