The Catholic Church has installed a new leader for England and Wales, who has said he is 'most aware' of the times the church has failed abuse victims. Archbishop Moth, by contrast, has asserted, upon his accession, his keen awareness of the institution's failings. When named in the role in December, Archbishop Moth had indicated he would speak out on societal issues including migration. He came under fire around that time over a damning report, published in November 2020, on child sex abuse allegations in the Catholic Church. But when asked at the time if he was, regardless, the right person to lead the Catholic Church in England and Wales, he said: 'I do what I'm told.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the Ukrainian president, met with the disqualified skeleton athlete Vladyslav Heraskevych to present him with the honour. Earlier this week, Heraskevych was disqualified from the Winter Olympics in Italy owing to his helmet, which contained images of Ukrainians who have died in the Russia-Ukraine war

The US Secretary of State’s address at the Munich Security Conference was a drastic contrast with that made by vice president JD Vance who, in 2025, launched a blistering attack on America’s European allies. Mr Rubio, instead, insisted the fate of the United States and Europe “will always be intertwined”, as he said that Donald Trump “demands seriousness and reciprocity from our friends here in Europe” because “we care deeply about your future and ours”. In his speech to the conference, Mr Rubio said: “We want Europe to be strong. Sir Keir Starmer will tell the summit that Europe must relinquish its overdependence on the United States in his speech on Saturday morning. Sir Keir is rubbing shoulders with about 50 world leaders at the Munich Security Conference, where he has already met with Germany’s Friedrich Merz, France’s Emmanuel Macron, and joined the Ukraine meeting alongside its president, Volodymyr Zelensky.

Australia is the only country in the world in recent times to have stopped a wave of illegal migration by boat. It was a loud and clear message to would-be illegal migrants that giving 10,000 dollars to a people smuggler was actually buying a return ticket to nowhere. But just as illegal migration has to be stopped, legal migration has to be controlled. 6 ‘Overseas Migration’, Australian Bureau of Statistics (13 December 2024), www.abs.gov.au/statistics/people/population/overseas-migration/latest-release. 13 James Jupp, From White Australia to Woomera: The Story of Australian Immigration (Cambridge University Press, 2007).

James Graham’s Dear England examines football at the highest level, forensically exploring - to quote Steven Dyke's excellent Physio Phil - the arrogance that plagues the game. Of those young men, Oscar Gough's touching portrait of the tongue-tied Harry Kane was an obvious highlight, but was only one of many affectionate performances. Ashley Bryan's Sterling, Amarae Edson's Rashford, Connor Hawker's Maguire and Jack Maddison's Pickford were distinct and recognisable, while the previously mentioned Physio Phil stole every scene he was in. With slow motion mime and surtitles keeping score, this was also gripping theatre, whether or not you knew the outcome. And that’s because this play about football was not really about football at all.

Emily Brontë’s only novel, Wuthering Heights (1847) is one of the great one-offs of English literature — a ferocious story of all-consuming childish love, told in fierce, attacking prose. Wuthering Heights was the book that made me a serious reader. Are you more Wuthering Heights or Thrushcross Grange? AdvertisementHaworth is a must-visit for any Brontë fan ALAMYIt isn’t my first time to Brontëland, I should stress. For the past 300 years the hall has belonged to the family of William Wilberforce, who, in addition to helping to abolish slavery, paid to put Patrick Brontë, Emily’s father, through Cambridge University.
