Well, I'm biased because she's my friend. But this week I went back to reread her piece after the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting, it's excellent.

I've been commissioned and edited by her a few times. I would say that she's actually a pretty good commissioning editor.

OPINION: The innocence of Anglo-Jewry ended this Yom Kippur Even when this war somehow ends and takes the temperature of life down a few degrees, the long-term trends in this country and elsewhere are all heading the wrong way, writes Josh Glancy

I wrote a column for @jewishnews.bsky.social on the shattering of Anglo-Jewish innocence. And what may come next.

Starmer and his grown-ups can’t just invent a bold identity The prime minister once described his pragmatism with pride. Now the absence of clear vision is becoming existential

Keir Starmer's lack of "vision" and "narrative" has become a cliche at this point. But this isn't just a PR problem. It has a real cost - in muddled hiring decisions and Whitehall not knowing what is it the PM actually wants to do.

Is Keir Starmer blowing it? The PM is in for a stormy autumn Labour MPs had hoped he’d take the fight to Nigel Farage by now. But here comes the budget … and, hanging over everything, the small boats crisis

For today's @thetimes.com read, I spoke to Labour MPs ahead of a seismic autumn for Starmer. The mood is ... existential

'It’s been a bizarrely quiet summer'

'I’m staggered by the lack of direction'

'It can’t carry on at this pace. It’s not sustainable'

Think it was me who said this? Take your point on distinguishing between Farage and the online right, but I wasn't just referring to immigration. He's picked up a lot of momentum and attracted a lot of coversage on many different fronts

Killer drones are changing war — and may soon think for themselves Ukraine’s destruction of expensive warplanes with simple flying bombs was Russia’s Pearl Harbor moment. The technology is changing faster than you think

‘An existential crisis’: can universities survive ChatGPT? Students are using AI to cheat and professors are struggling to keep up. If an AI can do all the research and writing, what is the point of a degree?

Is ChatGPT destroying the university degree as we know it? Or can it be harnessed for good?

Trump’s chaos is a stress test of western values. If we pass, we’ll be stronger

"By questioning so many of the assumptions and arrangements that underpin our international order, America’s current president is holding up a mirror and forcing us to examine our own souls" | ✍️ @joshglancy.bsky.social

Trump’s chaos is a stress test of western values. If we pass, we’ll be stronger The US president is trashing many of our deeply held assumptions. It gives us a chance to define who we are

Trump's chaos is stress testing our entire way of life. But if we can pass the test, we may yet emerge stronger
