A $1bn push for power
Leaked documents have revealed the vast scope and cost of the Kremlin's vote-rigging machinery. With Putin certain to win another six-year term this weekend, why do elections matter so much to the Russian president?

Putin's puppets How stagemanaged polls string along the voters
Two election cycles ago, in 2012, Sergei Mironov was loudly playing the role of opposition to Russia’s ruling party, wearing the white ribbon of the protest movement in the State Duma and claiming his run against Vladimir Putin was “serious ”.

'Like choosing between a hedgehog or a porcupine' The presidential election rematch no one wants
In past years, the first phase of the general election has involved at least one of the presidential nominees introducing themselves to the public and presenting their case for taking the US in a new direction. But that has been rendered unnecessary this year: former president Donald Trump and president Joe Biden are very familiar to the electorate and are broadly unpopular.

Blame game Distracted Democrats risk forgetting the greater goal
When an opinion poll in the New York Times found that a majority of Joe Biden's voters believe he is too old to be an effective US president, the call to action was swift. But it was not aimed at Joe Biden.

Shore point AUS-built floating aid port for Gaza what could go wrong?
The US plan to build a floating port off the Gaza coast is a bold move, reminiscent of the Mulberry harbours built after D-day in Normandy, but there are serious concerns that what relief it brings will be too little too late for Palestinians facing starvation.

'We're stuffed' Have the Tories given up on winning the next election?
Hours after last Wednesday's budget, the Conservative party's great and good assembled at the medieval Guildhall in London to hear Rishi Sunak address the 50th anniversary dinner for the Centre for Policy Studies thinktank. His party had a clear plan, the prime minister told hundreds of Tory MPS, peers, donors and other assorted luminaries: one centred on higher growth and lower taxes.
