One of Paris’s most cherished #BastilleDay traditions won’t happen this year. All firefighters’ balls on 13 & 14 July have been cancelled as the capital braces for extreme heat under red alert.

She had said she would not campaign with an electronic tag… So will she or not? #LePenVerdict

She was incredibly charming. RIP Nathalie Baye. One of my favourite films with her is Truffaut’s Day For Night (La nuit américaine)

My column in The Times today. "Two weeks ago, the Socialist Party and the Greens cut all ties with Jean-Luc Mélenchon over “intolerable” antisemitic provocations. Today? In city after city they are cosying up to the very same party. They call it “technical fusions”. Orwell would have smiled."

Giorgio Gosetti, critic, festival director, and beloved cinema passeur, died suddenly last Friday in Rome. Cinema has lost a true friend. Ciao Giorgio!

The French Left is losing its marbles. #Paris’s left-wing candidate for mayor (elections on 15 & 22 March) warns that the city may face a “brown wave”—yes, like the Brownshirts, the paramilitary arm of the Nazi Party.

Former UK PM Gordon Brown is providing - voluntarily and not for the first time - information to the police about abuses of power relating to the Epstein files. As PM Brown was briefed against by people such as Alistair Campbell and Peter Mandelson as being ‘psychologically flawed’ ….1/

"How much longer will the French tolerate the rancour of a septuagenarian whose perpetual provocations saturate the political landscape?" @ericchol.bsky.social in fine form in this week's @lexpress.fr #JeanLucMelenchon

Charlie Hebdo says it as it is: La France Insoumise, led by Jean-Luc Mélenchon, has created a toxic political climate. For years, it has smeared opponents as “fascists,” “Zionists,” or “Nazis,” demonizing disagreement.

This is it. America has lost Britain. By insulting the British Army and those who fought and died alongside the US in Afghanistan, Trump’s America has destroyed the “special relationship.” If that doesn’t sound like much to you, it should. #NATO #Trump
