Sardinia: The best holiday destination for toddlers?
Sardinia Holiday Review: South West area, Pula and Chia. I love hot holidays, so as much as my husband tried to convince me that a holiday cottage in Wales was the answer to relaxation with kids, I was having none of it. If you don’t get on a plane, it’s not a proper holiday. OK, I do enjoy a UK break every year, but I know he was just trying to avoid the ‘babes on a plane’ scenario, which he...
Bar Review – Dirty Martini, Hanover Square
By Jonathan Hatchman, Food Editor, @TLE_Food Named after one of their signature cocktails – Dirty Martini is a bar group with seven venues operating across London. However, during a recent visit to the Hanover Square outpost, the staff were oddly resolute in convincing me to order a different drink, adamant that I would abhor the dirty martini on offer here. Yet although I’d been warned to drink it at my peril, this only heightened my curiosity. How could I visit...

But while the geopolitical situation escalates, focusing on good things closer to home could be the key to unlocking your optimism. The immediate aftermath of Brexit took its toll on the country with markets collapsing...

Bliar? Does The Chilcot Report Let Blair Off The Hook?
David Wilson co-founded the War Child charity, set up the Pavarotti Music Centre with the late opera star to heal the survivors of the Bosnian conflict with music workshops, then spent many years haranguing Tony Blair as Press Officer of the Stop The War Coalition. The lifelong anti war activist told TLE why he wants Tony Blair put on trial: When I was Press Officer at the Stop the War Coalition, my job included keeping close watch on everything Tony...
Post-Brexit Alliance Building
Something exciting happened on Tuesday night. Four politicians from four big parties (Green, Labour, SNP and Lib Dem), along with Amina Gichinga and John Harris, came together to start building a Progressive Alliance. There should be another general election in the next year. A Progressive Alliance could see Labour, SNP, Lib Dem, Green, Plaid Cymru, Sinn Féin and other parties agreeing not to contest each other in constituencies. The speakers were very clear - this is not about denying the referendum's democratic outcome. A Progressive Alliance is not about fighting Brexit. It's about...
Must Watch: Robin Cook Preempting The Chilcot Enquiry In 2003!
Robin Cook preempted the findings of the Chilcot inquiry more than 13 years ago in his 2003 resignation speech.

Cook said he "cannot support a war without international agreement or domestic support" and went on to criticise the government for going in to battle without a second resolution from the UN Security Council and without exhausting all other options. He said...
