Insomnia is not a grievance made by difficult women. Itas a life-threatening condition that often stems from a physical issue many doctors refuse to see

I have two degrees, two books to my name and I write for the Guardian. Yet I spent time in care, live at home and struggle for money. Can Karl Marx help me make sense of myself?
I have been obsessed with and confused by social class all my life. Both of my grandparents grew up in Liverpool in the 1930s in traditionally working-class households. They were clever and conscientious and managed to earn scholarships to university, eventually becoming teachers. Myparents have university degrees and own property; one of them is now a judge. To most people, all these things place me squarely and categorically in the middle class. But I was in special educational schools from the age of nine, spentpart of my childhood in care, left education altogether at 14 andcollected the dole until getting my first job in a cotton mill. All these things make me a dyed-in-the-wool prole.
And yet I have two degrees, I have written two books and I freelance for the Guardian a you canat get more insufferably bourgeois than that. At the same time, I am pushing 40 and living with my mum because I canat afford to rent anything larger than abroom cupboard, so I feel as though I am in class limbo a fitting in with everyone and no one at thesame time.

Kilmer, who has died aged 65, made his name with Top Gun and The Doors a but his exceptional talents were often under-appreciated by the mainstream film industry
Why do some movie careers take off a| and others go a bit sideways? Val Kilmer was a smart actor, a looker, a terrific screen presence and in later years an under-appreciated comic performer. His finest hour as an actor came in Shane Blackas comedy action thriller Kiss Kiss Bang Bang in 2005, when he was quite superb as the camp private investigator Gay Perry Shrike: a gloriously sleek, plump performance which was transparently a and outrageously a based on Tom Ford. If only Kilmer could have started his acting life with that bravura performance, and shown the world what he could do. Instead, and at a crucial stage in his career, he was trapped in the body and face of a staggeringly beautiful young man.
He could somehow never quite persuade Hollywood to accept him as a leading man and above-the-title player in the mould of his Top Gun contemporary Tom Cruise, who in 1986 played Pete aMavericka Mitchell to Val Kilmeras Tom aIcemana Kazansky. As the 80s and 90s rolled by, Kilmer never ascended to the league of Cruise, Hanks, Clooney and Pitt. Medication for the illness he latterly suffered canat have helped, and it is a great sadness that fate never allowed him to mature in the same way as, say, Kurt Russell.

A holiday park on the lesser-known CA"te Orientale offers lower prices, activities for all ages, and secluded sandy beaches
I had held out as long as I could, but there was no getting out of it. The catcalls were rising; the baying, cackling audience of under-11s intoxicated by a combination of ice-cream sugar rushes and my obvious, clammy fear. It was day 14 of a two-week summer holiday, and our final afternoon in blissful 30C Corsican sunshine. I just needed one more chapter, lounging with my book, soaking in the last of the bone-warming sun slowly edging down towards the islandas dramatic mountainous spine.
But my calculating offspring had not forgotten ill-fated promises made on a previous evening, probably a little too deep into the second carafe. I was probably caught off-guard at Barnyas, a sensational sushi restaurant in the town of Ghisonaccia, enjoying our best meal of the holiday. They know when my defences are down; when Iam fully relaxed into holiday ayesa mode, and prime for being taken advantage of.

One of a series of photographs taken across India in which women, many of them abuse survivors, use traditional needlework to embellish portraits of themselves
This is a portrait of Praween Devi, a woman I met in 2019 through a local organisation while working on my project NAIrA<<. I met her alongside other women who gather in their back yards to embroider together, sharing stories over cups of chai.
When I asked to take her photograph, she suggested the main hall of her home, mentioning its lack of decoration and how the walls were bare except for a framed image of flowers and, notably, a photograph of all the men in the house. Before we began, she brought in a rug from another room, subtly curating the space. As I composed the shot, I included the photograph of the men, wondering how she would choose to alter the image through embroidery.

Beware the backlash strategies used by Trump and Berlusconi. It is vital that the National Rally leader isnat able to capitalise on this verdict
The verdict is in: the National Rally (NR) and its leader, Marine Le Pen, have been found to have employed fictitious European parliament assistants between 2004 and 2016. The fraudulent scheme enabled the misappropriation of around a!2.9m in European funds, and Le Pen has now been barred from holding public office for five years. Could this mark the end for the National Rally? Highly unlikely a and the reason lies in the partyas strategy.
During the trial, Le Pen deliberately maintained silence in response to the allegations a a tactic some outlets dismissed as evidence of a weak defence, even questioning her credibility. Yet this quiet is far from a sign of weakness; it reflects a long-established approach that consistently shuns conventional manoeuvres in favour of an intentionally unpredictable stance.

Loyalists worry that the PM displays little of the engagement and dynamism required. Five years on, neither they nor voters really know him or his plan
Upsetting backbench MPs is an occupational hazard for prime ministers. Government is an endless sequence of messy compromises. Incumbency is a drag on popularity. Poll ratings sink and nerves fray. Careers are thwarted. There are fewer ministerial jobs than ambitious candidates.
This is normal party discontentment. It grows over the course of a parliament, becoming critical at the point when rebel numbers threaten the leaderas majority. By that metric, Keir Starmer can afford to provoke a lot of dissatisfaction in the ranks. And, together with Rachel Reeves, he has.

British Muslims are too often acceptable only when they bake cakes or win medals. Now the nation has had a true insight into our faith
If anything is going to get me to turn on BBC One early on Eid morning, itas Eid prayer being televised on a UK terrestrial channel for the first time in British broadcasting history. Held at Bradford Central Mosque, the groundbreaking coverage on Monday followed the entirety of the Eid prayer a starting with Quraanic recitation, then a sermon in both English and Arabic and the congregational prayer itself, culminating in the customary eid mubarak embraces.
For Muslims like me, these scenes are part and parcel of every Eid. The keffiyeh-draped uncles sporting orange beards dyed with henna, some to emulate the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and some simply to hide their grey hairs; the children using the congregation as an assault course and scouting out the auntie who is handing out the best sweets; fancy clothes, henna-patterned palms and smiling faces; people high on both the spirituality of the just-passed holy month and probably too much sugar. This is the stuff Eid is made of, but watching it unfold on the nationas main TV channel was a refreshing novelty a and I found it strangely affirming, as well as a little emotional, to witness.

A decade of war in Yemen has left us in a place we never could have imagined. Our biggest worries were once exams, work and weddings. Today, we live with the weight of constant fear. You wake to the sound of explosions or the silence of grief, leave your home uncertain if you will return, look at your child and wonder what kind of future awaits.

The speed with which US democracy is being dismantled is dizzying, but if we organise resistance now we can stop this
Everything is moving too fast. The Trump-Musk administration is tearing through US government, universities and health organisations, firing tens of thousands of employees, eliminating billons in funding. The scope and speed of the attack is dizzying. It is almost impossible to keep up with the ongoing destruction, let alone to organise the resistance. None of this is accidental.
We need to understand the origins of the Trump blitzkrieg to counter it in the US and prevent it from spreading abroad. The speed of the attack can be traced to Trump strategist and aaccelerationista Steve Bannon, and aligns with his information warfare tactic to aflood the zonea to confuse, disengage and disorient. Whether on climate or Covid, rumours, lies and conspiracy theories create a chaotic cacophony, leaving the public disoriented, fearful and prey to oversimple Trumpist messages: blame the woke, migrants, transgender people, Muslims, doctors, scientists. Muskas purchase of Twitter/X supports Bannonas agenda.

Trent Alexander-Arnold is expected to leave for Real Madrid this summer, with Liverpool likely to dip into the market to secure a new right-back. They will need to sign a full-back capable of replicating Alexander-Arnoldas attacking threat, which will prove easier said than done. The 26-year-old has set up six goals and 51 shooting chances for teammates this season, making him one of the most creative defenders in the league.

Donald Trump to announce latest round of tariffs at 8pm GMT
Joshua Mahony, at Scope Markets, has looked at todayas moves in stock markets.
European equities are falling in anticipation of todayas liberation day tariffs with Donald Trump expected to announce his sweeping tax on imports at 4 pm Eastern time. Rather predictably it is the Dax which leads the losses as the German market surge seen in the wake of the agreement to increase the government deficit and ramp up fiscal expenditure fades.
For traders and investors, today represents a day of huge uncertainty as we weigh up the potential for retaliatory tariffs and a tit-for-tat trade war. [US trade secretary] Scott Bessent has stated that todayas tariffs are likely to be the worst it will get, and his historical comments over the potential to aescalate to deescalatea means that we will hopefully soon move into a phase where we hear more about potential trade deals and tariff reduction rather than the bad news that currently dominates markets. Nonetheless, with the likes of Canada and the EU standing ready to implement retaliatory measures, things might get worse before they get better.
Today brings the latest ADP payrolls report out of the US, bringing a fresh insight into the behaviour of US businesses in the face of recent tariff uncertainty. A collapse in the employment metric of the manufacturing PMI released from the ISM yesterday does highlight the struggles faced by manufacturers that could be hurt by both foreign tariffs and the rising costs of imported parts.
It stands to reason that businesses will hold off hiring in the face of such uncertainty, and thus markets are faced with the possibility that we see signs of economic deterioration in the form of weak ADP and non-farm payroll figures at the back end of this week.
It was following a couple of incidents of, unfortunately, theft of wire and cable around some of the power supply that, on one of those occasions, took out the lights on the runway for a period of time.
That obviously made me concerned and, as such, I raised the point I wanted to understand better the overall resilience of the airport.
It became quite clear we could not operate the airport safely quite early in this process, and that is why we closed the airport.
If we had not done that, we would have had thousands of passengers stranded at the airport at high risk to personal injury, gridlocked roads around the airport, because donat forget 65,000 houses and other institutions were powered down.

Toby Jones plays the spaniel-eyed schoolmaster setting Harry Lawteyas needy young pupil on course for haughty international stardom
The career of Richard Burton seemed mythic at the time, and more so in retrospect. In Pedro AlmodA3varas latest movie The Room Next Door, Julianne Mooreas character is even shown reading Erotic Vagrancy, Roger Lewisas account of Burtonas then-adulterous relationship with Elizabeth Taylor in the early 60s, the title taken from Pope John XXIIIas extraordinary denunciation: aYou will finish in an erotic vagrancy, without end or without a safe port.a In fact, the nearest thing Burton ever had to a safe port was his inspirational English teacher Philip Burton in Port Talbot, south Wales, whose own frustrated dreams of the theatre were poured into the bright young mineras son Richard Jenkins, coaching him in acting and even making him his legal ward and getting him to change his surname to Burton to facilitate the teacheras sponsorship of his Oxford scholarship.
Itas the subject of this heartfelt, vigorously acted, enjoyable, if slightly naive movie from screenwriters Tom Bullough and Josh Hyams, and director Marc Evans. Toby Jones stars as the spaniel-eyed Mr Burton and Harry Lawtey is Richard, a lanky, needy kid morphing into that insufferably haughty and sonorous prince of the English stage. It tells a uniquely painful and dysfunctional story, and does its best to show how Burtonas pride always coexisted with shame and self-hate, and culminated with him playing Hal in Henry IV Part 2 at Stratford with Mr Burton in the audience, the pair effectively enacting their own version of the Hal/Falstaff betrayal scene.

The artist and musician is a brilliant subject for an epic, in-depth biography, but this is merely hagiography
In 1966 a woman sat down at the Destruction in Art Symposium at Londonas Africa Centre and invited people to cut off her clothes. It was an era when Yves Klein used naked women as paintbrushes and Allen Jones made sculptures of fetishistically dressed women posed as furniture. But Yoko Ono was in control of her own self-sacrifice. It was the third time shead performed this paradoxically passive action, and each time it was the audience who exposed themselves as they took scissors to her clothing.
This was also the beginning of a sojourn in London for the Japanese-born New York artist that would catapult her from avant garde obscurity to global fame. Her exhibition at the Indica Gallery that same year was visited by John Lennon, who climbed one of her artworks, a ladder to the ceiling. At the top he used a magnifying glass to read the tiny word aYESa. The love kindled that day would be blamed for breaking up the Beatles.

The author of The Five, about the Ripper murders, turns her attention to another tragically misunderstood victim
In the canon of British true crime, the case of Dr Crippen routinely gets billed as the first amoderna murder. It wasnat that there was anything particularly original about the doctoras motives or methods: in January 1910 he slipped poison into his wifeas bedtime drink so that he could marry his secretary instead. Rather, it was the way that Crippen was caught that turned this run-of-the-mill suburban love triangle into an international cause cA(c)lA"bre.
Realising that it would only be amatter of time before his wifeas dismembered remains were discovered in the cellar of the marital home in north London, Crippen and his secretary Ethel Le Neve fled to Canada in disguise. Such was the media hoopla surrounding the case that the sharp-eyed captain of the SSMontrose quickly spotted the runaway lovers among his passengers. This was despite their unconvincing cover story of being afather and sona (the hand-holding and kissing gave the game away). Using the shipas brand-new Marconi wireless, Capt Andrew Kendall alerted the British authorities that he had the infamous fugitives in his sight. Within hours, Insp Dew of Scotland Yard had boarded a faster ship from Liverpool with the intention of reaching Newfoundland first, so that he would be ready to arrest DrCrippen and his companion when they made landfall. To a fascinated public, following the unfolding drama in the newspapers, it was as if time travel were being invented before their very eyes.

Documentary follows the baloeiros, who illegally build and release huge decorated balloons in cities, from where they can travel hundreds of miles
An intriguing film set in Brazil, first shown last year at the CPH:DOX documentary festival in Copenhagen, in which expatriate Danish film-maker Sissel Morell Dargis takes a look at a unique grassroots cultural phenomenon: the baloeiros, the ballooners. These are groups of young men, as secretive and loyal to each other as Freemasons, who (illegally) build and release huge decorated balloons in cities, from where they can travel hundreds of miles. Why? As kind of graffiti, or a community self-expression, or situationist artform, or just a subversive gesture of pure joie de vivre that does not need or admit of any explanation.
The baloeiros are harassed by the police, on the ostensible grounds that they are part of gang culture, and the authorities encourage local people to inform on those they suspect of building and transporting a balloon. But baloeiros are cheerfully committed to their own kind of public-access artistry. The balloons show colossal images of Sly Stallone and Luciano Pavarotti a aspirational role models and pop culture icons. As Dargis says: aA flying balloon belongs to everyone, even the police.a

We first meet Jane O in the consulting room of Henry Byrd, a New York psychiatrist. Jane, a 38-year-old librarian, is neat, quiet, outwardly unremarkable. She sits without saying anything, then gets up and leaves. Her visit has lasted just 14 minutes and Henry fears he will not see her again. He detects in her aa loneliness of the soul a| [like] a pine tree growing alone on a great, wide plaina.
Their next encounter proves even stranger. Jane has been discovered unconscious in a public park with no memory of how she got there. A day of her life has gone missing and she is anxious about the welfare of her young son Caleb, who she failed to collect from nursery during her ablackouta. Terrified about how she might be judged for this memory lapse, she finally gives an account of the inexplicable event that brought her to Henry in the first place.

Two rice dishes from the Gulf: bottom-of-the-pot chicken and rice, AKA fegaaata, and a side or main of tomato, potato and saffron rice
The Gulf countries are known for their elaborate rice dishes, many of them inverted, so the bottom becomes the top and the top the bottom. Some of the best and most traditional ones are cooked over charcoal and palm wood in deep underground fire pits, so the smokiness takes over every grain. That isnat practical in most homes, but I like to think we can still produce the most wonderful rice dishes with just simple ingredients and a lot of love.

The influential US commentator has written a book about how politics can change peopleas lives for the better. But first, there are more pressing challenges to address ...
Ezra Klein, the New York Times podcast host and progressive mediaas undisputed nerd king, starts his new book with something of a palate cleanser for our troubled times. For a few paragraphs, he and his co-author, the Atlantic journalist Derek Thompson, whisk us out of the grim reality of contemporary politics to a world of Abundance (the word they picked as their title).
aYou open your eyes at dawn and turn in the cool bedsheets,a they purr, before conjuring a near-future utopia where the cost of living crisis is a distant memory. aYou live in a cocoon of energy so clean it barely leaves a carbon trace and so cheap you can scarcely find it on your monthly bill.a The fridge is full of fresh fruit and vegetables from skyscraper farms that sit amid rewilded landscapes. This is what we can look forward to, they say, if we sweep away the bureaucratic cobwebs that mean government too often gets in the way of innovation, rather than leading it.

A 19th-century zoologist found the alittle salt dwellera, which could be a portal to the past a if only we could locate it again
Last February, with colleagues Gert and Philipp and my daughter Francesca, I made the long journey to an unremarkable city called RAo Cuarto, east of the Argentinian Andes. We went in search of a worm of unusual distinction.
Why a worm? As humans, we naturally love the animals that are most familiar. But from a zoologistas point of view, the vertebrates, from mammals and birds to frogs and fish, can be seen as variations on a single theme. We all have a head at one end (with skull, eyes and jaws); in the middle, a couple of pairs of limbs (a goldfishas fins, or your arms and legs); and, holding all this together, a backbone ending in a tail.

The parliamentary leader of Franceas far-right National Rally party, Marine Le Pen, has been banned from public office for five years for embezzlement, ruining her chance of a presidential run. Angelique Chrisafis reports
It is a sentence that has prompted anger among rightwing leaders across the world and led to accusations that democracy is being threatened. This week, Marine Le Pen, the parliamentary leader of the National Rally (RN), the largest opposition party in the French parliament, was banned for five years from public office for embezzlement. Along with more than 20 others, she was found to have used money for European parliament assistants to pay party workers.
The shock sentence could end Le Penas hopes of running for president in 2027. She is now appealing and has hit back furiously, as have her supporters and allies. Some of her support could hurt her more than it helps, however. The Kremlin spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov, said in response that amore and more European capitals are going down the path of violating democratic normsa. While Donald Trump and Viktor OrbA!n have also weighed in.
