Rishi Sunak's ascent to 10 Downing Street is both a remarkable comeback and a historical milestone. My full report on another epochal day in British politics. nytimes.com/2022/10/24/wor…

From Barack Obama to Donald Trump. From Boris Johnson to Rishi Sunak. That moment when you realize your reporting career has come full circle.

As the UK's Conservatives oust their fourth PM and agonize over whether to bring back her disgraced predecessor, how Brexit has turned the world's most successful political party into a hopeless battlefield of warring factions. nytimes.com/2022/10/22/wor…

Four Scaramuccis: Why the UK's prime minister, Liz Truss, resigned after only 44 days in office. Me and ⁦Michael Barbaro⁩ nytimes.com/2022/10/21/pod…

Turns out when Boris Johnson said, 'Hasta la vista, baby,' he might only have meant 50 days. The rising chances of a Boris restoration. nytimes.com/2022/10/21/wor…

Liz Truss's downfall was triggered by fluctuations in exchange rates and bond yields, not the bitter departures of her ministers or the hothouse anxieties of Conservative lawmakers. My analysis. nytimes.com/2022/10/20/wor…

China is offering former R.A.F. pilots $270,000 a year to train P.L.A. pilots in Western tactics. About 30 have signed up. UK defense ministry says it's a national security threat but has few legal tools to stop them. nytimes.com/2022/10/17/wor…

For all the shock and dismay at the fiasco of Liz Truss, this was a crisis foretold. 'Borrowing your way out of inflation isn't a plan,' Rishi Sunak said while running against her. 'It's a fairy tale.' nytimes.com/2022/10/14/wor…

Liz Truss is on the horns of a 'trilemma:' Stick to her tax cuts, with no spending cuts, and torpedo the pound. Cut spending and lose her Tory MP's. Reverse her tax cuts and destroy her credibility. W/⁦Stephen Castle⁩ nytimes.com/2022/10/12/wor…

A shorter ceremony, reduced guest list, and fewer rituals. But it's still a coronation, the first in Britain in seven decades. May 6 in Westminster Abbey. nytimes.com/2022/10/11/wor…

How far have the ripples from the UK's budget fiasco gone? Kim Darroch, former UK envoy to DC, is at a tech conference on Komodo Island in Indonesia, where he says 'bemusement' over the Truss-Kwarteng 'shambles' is Topic A. nytimes.com/2022/10/03/wor…

So happy for ⁦Maggie Haberman⁩ on the publication of 'Confidence Man.' Before she produced this essential study of Donald Trump, she generously helped many of her NYT colleagues try to make sense of him, too. a.co/d/9A2Awax

Kwasi Kwarteng is a Cambridge PhD who studied financial crises of the past. When he became chancellor of the Exchequer, he ignored the experts and ignited a new one. ⁦Stephen Castle⁩ nytimes.com/2022/10/02/wor…

There are many things wrong with how the UK government rolled out its supply-side economic program. But Liz Truss's tin ear for the human cost of spiking interest rates on homeowners is not a small factor. nytimes.com/2022/09/30/wor…

The queen's death signaled the end of an era of British soft power. The collapse of the pound signals that decline in another dimension. ⁦Patricia Cohen⁩, with an ode to sterling. nytimes.com/2022/09/28/bus…

Liz Truss ran for Downing Street as a tax cutter and apostle of supply-side economics. She delivered her free-market agenda, and now it threatens to torpedo her government. nytimes.com/2022/09/27/wor…

Congratulations to ⁦Peter Baker⁩ & ⁦Susan Glasser⁩ on the publication of 'The Divider,' sure to be a definitive account of a presidency without precedent. a.co/d/7SjYz9f

From the cheers of thousands along the parade route to the swishing tail of Emma, the queen's Fell pony at Windsor Castle, Queen Elizabeth's funeral was epic and intimate. My full account. nytimes.com/2022/09/19/wor…

Queen Elizabeth II was laid to rest on Monday. The future of the British monarchy's far-flung realm, and even of the UK itself, is in doubt after the queen. Me, and ⁦Michael Barbaro⁩ nytimes.com/2022/09/19/pod…
