The Guardian

The Guardian is a British daily newspaper. It was founded in Manchester in 1821 as The Manchester Guardian and changed its name in 1959, followed by a move to London. Along with its sister paper, The Guardian Weekly, The Guardian is part of the Guardian Media Group, owned by the Scott Trust Limited. The trust was created in 1936 to "secure the financial and editorial independence of The Guardian in perpetuity and to safeguard the journalistic freedom and liberal values of The Guardian free from commercial or political interference". The trust was converted into a limited company in 2008, with a constitution written so as to maintain for The Guardian the same protections as were built into the structure of the Scott Trust by its creators. Profits are reinvested in its journalism rather than distributed to owners or shareholders. It is considered a newspaper of record in the UK.

  • The winner of the 2026 Baillie Gifford prize is a riveting work of ancient history that feels startlingly present • ‘Blockbuster’ history of Alexander the Great wins £50,000 Baillie Gifford prize In 336BC, Alexander was not great. He was a wiry 20-year-old “no one had thought much about” who found himself king of Macedon after the assassination of his father, Philip. He seemed uniquely unfit for the position. Desperate to prove his worth, Alexander led an army into the Persian empire to confront Darius III, a man who ruled more than 50 million people. Darius was so confident of victory that he brought his family along for the show. Alexander was outnumbered, and apparently out of his depth. He had suffered a fever that left him “shaking and helpless”, and dissent rattled through his ranks. A vast military force was bearing down on him, with Darius at the helm. “He did not know it yet,” Edmund Richardson writes, “but Alexander was about to become a legend.” Continue reading...

  • When the US’s first Muslim senator used Arabic in his victory speech, it cut through the torrent of vile racism Maga launched at him throughout his campaign Repeat after me: yallah. YAH-luh. This versatile Arabic word means everything from “hurry up”, to “come on” to “speak to you later”. If you add a “bye” at the end, the meaning shifts to “please shut up, fool” or “speak soon friend,” depending on your intonation. Next up: wallah. wa-LAH. Again, the definition changes depending on context and cadence. It can mean everything from “no way!” to “I swear to God.” Continue reading...

  • Another European away day, another victory for Arsenal: albeit only just. This time, Viktor Gyökeres stole the show as poor Slavia Prague matched the longest winless streak in European Cup and Champions League history despite a spirited late comeback. That unwanted record stands at 23, equalling the mark set by AEK Athens and FCSB – formerly known as Steaua Bucharest – while Arsenal are unbeaten in their 10 last away trips. However, had it not been for a wonder save from David Raya, the Czech champions would have snatched a point after Wiktor Nowak pulled one back late on as Mikel Arteta’s usually watertight defence showed signs of fallibility under pressure.

  • I tested more than a dozen blenders in Brooklyn, including from Vitamix and Breville for budget, size, mulch factor, speed and whether they had plastic or glass jars In the UK? Check out Filter UK’s top-rated blenders here There are few breakfasts that feel as healthy and refreshing as the ever-mutable smoothie. You can make them virtuous, with lots of greens and nut milk, or luscious, with full-fat dairy and cocoa powder – but in order to make a good one, you need a really good blender. And while smoothies are the classic use for a blender, these appliances can do so much more; a truly great blender is a kitchen workhorse that can make your morning smoothie, your afternoon dip, your evening soup and even a frozen drink if you’re feeling frisky. Best overall blender : Breville Fresh & Furious The v ery best blender (luxury) : Vitamix 5200 Best glass blender (also best for ice crushing) : KitchenAid Pure Power Blender with Glass Jar Best glass blender under $100 : Hamilton Beach Smoothie Start Glass Blender Best compact personal blender : The Beast Mega 1200 Plus Best blender for quick smoothies : Nutribullet Pro 900 The most plastic-free blender : Oster Classic Series Heritage Blender with Glass Jar Other blenders we tested : What’s OK and what to avoid How we test blenders : And our mission at the Filter US Blender features you should look for : Figuring out your needs How to clean a blender : A few small tips to help Continue reading...

  • Kseniia Petrova was detained for four months after arrest with research samples, and feared deportation to Russia Federal prosecutors have dropped all criminal charges against a Russian scientist who spent four months in immigration detention after flying into Boston with frog embryos intended for cancer research at Harvard Medical School. Kseniia Petrova, 31, was arrested in March 2025 after returning from a vacation in France, where she had visited a laboratory specializing in cutting extremely thin sections of frog embryos. During her visit, she obtained a package of samples for her research back in the US. Continue reading...

  • Dennis Quaid is wasted in a predictable drama with a cute basset hound and not much more US election results may still be trickling in, but Netflix has already made the call: ’tis the season! Just four days into November, with leaves still on the trees and much of the country stuck in T-shirt weather, the streaming service has decided to hit full-send on the longest possible window for cookie-cutter cheer and fake snow; as of now, Christmas is a go. And with an opening salvo like the plainly titled A Dog’s Perfect Christmas, one would think the company has given itself a running head start to the holiday mass market. Or, at least, a cute-enough face, courtesy of one sweet basset hound and a corgi puppy, to possibly work as a naked attention ploy. A Dog’s Perfect Christmas, from A Dog’s Purpose creator W Bruce Cameron, does at least have the decency to set the scene before Thanksgiving and acknowledge said ploy; if there is one thing a grumbling man named “Sander Goss” (a constipated-looking Dennis Quaid) and I can agree on, it’s that they keep starting Christmas too early.

Not many would have put money on neither Liverpool nor Madrid winning their games this evening, mind. Less than 10 minutes remaining in both. Continue reading...

  • Community college professor unseats incumbent Republican David Valadao in seat redrawn under Prop 50 Democrat Randy Villegas, a community college professor with notable progressive endorsements, has won the race for California ’s 22nd congressional district in an contest that shaped up to be one of the toughest political battles in the state. He unseated the six-term, incumbent Republican congressman, David Valadao, in a district that was considered the only true toss-up across the state of California after being redrawn under Proposition 50 , a voter-approved ballot initiative that remade the state’s voting maps last year.

  • I’m a notoriously slow tea drinker. This clever invention means I never have to suffer through another lukewarm cup Sign up for the Filter US newsletter, your weekly guide to buying fewer, better things November kicks off the season of itchy sweaters, gusty weather and elaborate excuses not to leave the house. For me, this also means a dramatic uptick in tea consumption. Few things make a chilly morning more tolerable than a steaming hot beverage, like this hearty pumpkin and red bean tea I have been quaffing lately. The problem is that I’m a painfully slow tea drinker. I’ll make myself a lovely cup, take a few sips, get distracted by work and remember it exists 45min later, when it’s gone miserably lukewarm. I’ll then drink my sad tea or get up to boil the kettle again (while finishing my sad tea as I wait). In the past, I’ve kept the kettle on to avoid this predicament, but I recently found a much better fix: the Ohom Ui self-heating mug , a small luxury that has made my tea habit considerably more pleasurable, and possibly ruined regular mugs for me for good.

  • Troy Jackson, in just 101 days, bested the Republican, preventing her sixth Senate term: ‘You can’t eat road salt’ The political demise of Susan Collins – a fixture of Maine and Washington politics for three decades – recalls the famous line in Ernest Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises about how one of the novel’s characters experienced bankruptcy: gradually, then suddenly. In the run-up to Tuesday’s stunning Democrat “blue wave” election triumph, it seemed obvious that Collins’s 30-year tenure as Maine’s Republican senator was vulnerable to the challenge of Troy Jackson, the Democrats’ explicitly working-class candidate as voters prepared to unleash pent-up anger with Donald Trump ’s presidency.

  • The historic Democratic victories in the 2026 midterm elections were more than just a rebuke of Donald Trump and his Maga movement – they are a five-alarm fire for the Republican party itself, which may be on the verge of collapse. The sweeping wins in GOP strongholds like Texas, Iowa and Kansas reveal an electorate that is fed up and eager for change. But that anger could turn on Democrats – quick. Now that they run Congress, what can the fractured Democratic coalition achieve? And will they do enough to keep voters on their side in 2028? Kai Wright and Carter Sherman break down what we know about this once-in-a-lifetime election and how this new Congress has the potential to be the most consequential since Reconstruction Continue reading...

Late on Tuesday, conservation officers in British Columbia said the two women, who were reported missing over the weekend, were located near a trail a short distance from their home.

Rosenthal, a Democrat, will join the three-member body that Democrats have been shut out of for decades. The state agency is charged with regulating Texas’s multibillion oil and gas industry, and has not had railroad oversight since 2005. Continue reading...

  • The real question in my mind is whether Democrats will take advantage of the new age of populism The great sleeping giant of the US has awakened, taken a hard look at what’s become of the nation, and roared a thunderous “NO!” What occurred on Tuesday was not – as some are saying – the inevitable midterm swing of the pendulum against the party in power. Texas hasn’t elected a Democratic senator since 1988. The last time Kansas elected a Democratic senator was 1932. Robert Reich, a former US secretary of labor, is a professor of public policy emeritus at the University of California, Berkeley. He is a Guardian US columnist and his newsletter is at robertreich.substack.com . His new book, Coming Up Short: A Memoir of My America, is out now in the US and in the UK Continue reading...

  • The 2026 edition of the tournament brought in untold amounts of money to Gianni Infantino’s governing body The total hasn’t entirely stopped rising yet, still clicking away towards a final tally. Still, Fifa has already announced that it surpassed its own lofty revenue projections for the 2026 World Cup, bringing in $15bn, significantly more than anticipated. It appears that a third of that total – $5bn – came from ticket sales and hospitality alone, per reporting from the Times . That would mean direct income from the matchgoing fans came in five times as high in the United States, Canada and Mexico as it did at the last World Cup, in Qatar in 2022, when the total stood at $929m. While 2026’s expanded World Cup added 40 games to the schedule, the takings nevertheless went from an average of about $14.5m per match to about $48m. Continue reading...
