Politics has tossed friendship out of the window – as Keir Starmer is realising | Simon Jenkins

Britain’s embattled PM is beset by enemies. One reason is that Westminster has ceased to be a club and turned into a shambles

The Tories took years of Westminster turmoil to reach their Liz Truss moment. It has taken Labour only two. Britain has a weakened prime minister, a fatally divided government and a shambolic House of Commons. No one beyond Keir Starmer’s looming rivals can seriously believe the cure lies in his immediate toppling.

There is no leader in waiting obviously superior to Starmer, certainly not his former health secretary, Wes Streeting. Out of naked ambition, he has ditched a critical job in an extraordinary display of cabinet nastiness. As the chancellor, Rachel Reeves, suggests, the effect of a leadership change on the economy could be severe. Yet Westminster’s corridors are bubbling and seething, close to explosion. Something is very wrong with British politics.

ICE violently arrested a US citizen and filmed it ‘like a documentary’, videos reveal

Exclusive: DHS made social media posts out of a protester’s arrest at gunpoint. Christian Cerna speaks out about the lengthy prosecution that derailed his life

Christian Cerna, 28, was driving with his partner and their two young children through Los Angeles, when two vehicles rammed his car and a group of men jumped out and trained their guns on them.

It was 11 June 2025, and as Cerna exited his vehicle with his hands raised, he realized the masked men weren’t street criminals as he initially feared. They were Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

Add to playlist: Rian Brazil’s Björk-beloved sounds of Brighton youth and the week’s best new tracks

The earworm wizard blends sample-heavy electronic beats with sugary vocal highs and bassy lows, giving authentic voice to England’s fringes

From London via Brighton
Recommended if you like Jawnino, Fakemink, Jai Paul
Up next Engine Heartbreak EP released 20 May

Not many can say that Björk has played their track while DJing at the Venice Biennale, but, as of last weekend, Rian Brazil is one of them. The Brighton-born producer, also praised by pop star Lola Young, is a master of earworms, which he weaves from the sample-heavy sounds of the UK underground (see his longtime collaborator, Fakemink producer Clearo) and the saccharine highs and bassy lows of his vocals. On first listen, you might mistake the huge range of his melodies for Auto-Tune, but this, impressively, is Brazil’s raw voice, modulated vocally to achieve deeply vulnerable performances that set his sound apart from his rap-focused peers.

The Federal Reserve’s independence is hanging by a thread in the age of Trump

The president’s ultimate goal is to push the Fed – among other independent US institutions – to bend to his will

Jerome Powell, who stepped down this week as chair of the Federal Reserve, had his hits and misses. The Fed was late to react as prices started rising when the Covid pandemic abated, but they eventually acted forcefully and achieved the most rare of feats: a “soft landing”, curbing inflation without sparking a recession or damaging employment.

Strangely, given the chaotic era of pandemic and tariffs that coincided with Powell’s time as chair, monetary policy may not define his legacy. Powell’s most lasting accomplishment will most likely be his outspoken efforts to defend the independence of the Fed from an assault by the imperial presidency of Donald Trump.

‘You look at it and you just feel better’: this year’s Photoville festival highlights

The annual New York-based display of photography contains moving pictures from behind bars and a revealing look at trans lives back in the 1990s

For the 15th installment of the annual Photoville festival, which sees more than 90 exhibits of photographic portfolios from all around the world, festival co-founder Sam Barzilay is thinking about apples – specifically the bizarre and at times cosmic-looking ones in the exhibit Old Apples.

“I was so delighted it got selected,” he enthusiastically told me. “It’s the most whimsical thing we have, it’s about apples and how there are no two apples in nature that are the same.”

The best recent crime and thrillers – review roundup

Honey by Imani Thompson; Quite Ugly One Evening by Chris Brookmyre; The Final Chapter by CB Everett; The Hollow Boys by Tariq Ashkanani; Shrink Solves Murder by Philippa Perry

Honey by Imani Thompson (Borough, £16.99)
Thompson’s smart and incisive debut centres on Yrsa, a young Black woman studying for a sociology PhD and teaching undergraduates at Cambridge. Irritated by her solipsistic, over-privileged students and tired of situationships, she’s fed up with life, and men in particular. Her first killing – that of a much older supervisor who reneges on his promise to leave his wife for a colleague, and steals her research in the process – is an accident, but Yrsa, who has catastrophically poor impulse control, enjoys the sensation and, more importantly, gets away with it. “It’s theory in action”: as victims pile up, her academic research provides a spurious rationale for justifiable anger, as with Hugh, who used her for bragging rights (“Black girl magic, 20 points”). But somebody is on to her, and things are starting to spin out of control … The best kind of campus novel, satirical and razor-sharp, crossed with a crime story: Thompson is an exciting new voice.

Quite Ugly One Evening by Chris Brookmyre (Abacus, £22)
Thirty years after Brookmyre’s debut, his latest novel to feature journalist Jack Parlabane makes a tonal return to his earlier, more irreverent style. Now 60, Jack feels increasingly like a “Boomer Ambassador” to the younger colleagues who are snapping at his heels. With his job on the line, he agrees to investigate a cold case: the death, 40 years earlier, of an MI5 operative. It’s thought to be connected to the Maskyn family, creators of much-loved but now contentious Thunderbirds-style TV series The Imaginators, and Parlabane finds himself on the transatlantic cruise liner hosting the 60th anniversary convention as “several hundred emotionally stunted fanboy incels alongside an over-remunerated family of nepo babies, trust fund pukes and outright fascists” duke it out over The Imaginators’ legacy. Masterfully plotted and scalpel-sharp, this is a riotously good read that uses a Golden Age set-up to take aim at the culture wars, while also providing a thoroughly satisfying mystery.

Rubio nega inspiração em Maduro para roupa que viralizou

Nicolás Maduro e Marco Rubio, com o mesmo conjunto de moletom Truth Social / X / Reprodução O secretário de Estado americano, Marco Rubio, negou ter se inspirado no deposto presidente venezuelano Nicolás Maduro no momento de escolher a roupa que aparece em uma foto que viralizou na internet. Uma imagem de Rubio com um conjunto esportivo cinza da Nike durante um voo para a China ao lado do presidente Donald Trump agitou as redes sociais. ✅ Siga o canal de notícias internacionais do g1 no WhatsApp A roupa, da mesma marca e cor, é similar ao modelo Nike Tech Fleece que Maduro utilizava quando foi fotografado algemado em um helicóptero, depois que as forças americanas o capturaram em Caracas e o levaram para Nova York para ser julgado por narcotráfico. Steven Cheung, diretor de comunicação da Casa Branca, publicou nas redes sociais que Rubio estava utilizando o Nike Tech 'Venezuela' no Air Force One. Em suas primeiras declarações públicas sobre a foto viral, Rubio deixou claro que não tinha Maduro em mente. "Sabe de uma coisa? Ele me copiou porque eu já tinha antes. Quer dizer, eu não sei quando ele comprou o dele", disse Rubio sobre Maduro em entrevista ao canal NBC em Pequim. "A conclusão é que é um conjunto esportivo, que é confortável", afirmou o secretário de Estado. "Não havia nenhuma mensagem. Eu nem sabia que ele estava tirando a foto". Marco Rubio X / Reprodução Rubio, cubano-americano, é um inimigo ferrenho da esquerda latino-americana e ajudou a estabelecer as bases para a operação de 3 de janeiro destinada a derrubar Maduro. A Justiça dos Estados Unidos acusou o ex-presidente venezuelano e sua esposa de tráfico de drogas, o que eles negam. A vice-presidente de Maduro, Delcy Rodríguez, assumiu o governo da Venezuela com o apoio dos Estados Unidos. Os detalhes da primeira foto de Maduro capturado pelos EUA Arte/g1
