Fears grow over far right's rise
Ahead of a snap parliamentary vote, Marine Le Pen's National Rally is polling high across much of the country. Can the party actually win power-and what would it try to do if so?

'Russian roulette' Macron's ballot box gamble is the stuff of centrist nightmares
The prime minister, Gabriel Attal, stared ahead with his arms folded while another minister covered his face with his hands. As the French president, Emmanuel Macron, gathered top government figures at the Élysée on 9 June to make the shock announcement that he would dissolve parliament and call a snap legislative election after a surge at the polls by Marine Le Pen's party, the mood, the prime minister said, was \"grave\".

Identity crisis Beware rebranded far right's creep into the mainstream
Far right? Hard right? Radical right? Or just plain right? The success in the recent EU elections of parties such as Marine Le Pen's Rassemblement National (RN - the rebadged Front National) and Germany's Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) has generated a debate about whether the label \"far right\" should be retired because, as Spectator editor Fraser Nelson argues, many parties that carry that moniker are \"now mainstream in a way that wasn't the case 15 years ago\".

Renewed Russian strikes take heavy toll on Kharkiv
The apartment at 24 Liubovi Maloi avenue was an eerie ruin. Its roof and outer walls had disappeared. In one corner, a row of suits hung in a wardrobe. There was a TV, a coffee cup, a maroon jacket on a peg. And a black-and-white photo album with old family snaps taken in communist times.

The women whose words are tackling Wikipedia's male bias
Packed into the back room of a feminist bookshop in Madrid, 17 women hunched over their laptops, chatting and laughing as they passed around snacks. Every now and then a hearty burst of applause punctuated the sound of typing, each time marking a milestone as the group chipped away at what is perhaps one of the world's most pervasive gender gaps.

Cats in flats Delight as covert pets finally given legal status
Tommy is, without doubt, the head of his household. If he wants the air conditioning on, he simply glares at the unit on the wall. If he wants an early night, he'll miaow for the TV to be silenced. But, until now, Tommy has been living in violation of a law that bans cats from much of Singapore's housing.

Will supreme court ethics prove to be a key election issue?
'Look at me, look at me,\" said Martha-Ann Alito. \"My heritage is German. You come after me, I'm gonna give it back to you.\" It was a bizarre outburst from the wife of a justice on America's highest court. Secretly recorded by a liberal activist, Alito complained about a neighbour's gay pride flag and expressed a desire to fly a sacred heart of Jesus flag in protest.

Rising violence against politicians is an attack on democracy itself
The response of Mette Frederiksen, Denmark's centre-left prime minister, to being physically assaulted in a Copenhagen street was dignified and very human. \"I'm not doing great, and I'm not really myself yet,\" she admitted last week. The attack had left her feeling shocked and intimidated, she said.

I've swiped away my dating apps-and life feels all the better for it
Swipe. Swipe. Swipe. For a while I was swiping so much I was barely thinking. Dating apps had hijacked my fingers, brain and evenings. I'd swipe, mindlessly and without looking, under the table at group dinners or during TV ad breaks. \"This is modern dating,\" I'd tell myself. \"It's a job. I have to keep on going. This is the key to my happy ending.\"

If Starmer is a 'political robot', he's one that has been hardwired to win
No drama Starmer. No surprises at last week's manifesto launch, no rabbits, no hats. Some in the audience are getting restless. Reporters yawn, or laugh, when the Labour leader says, for the millionth time, that his father was a toolmaker who worked in a factory. A voter at last Wednesday's Sky News debate told him to his face that he was a \"political robot\". The complaint is not only about style, but substance too. Opponents on the right lambast the lack of plans and policy detail; on the left they condemn the dearth of radical ambition.

A wild ride Tragedy and farce collide in the Irish author's beautiful, lovable and fun tale of lovers on the run in 19th-century Montana
The hero of Kevin Barry's new novel, The Heart in Winter, is a dope-fiend Irishman haphazardly subsisting in the mining town of Butte, Montana, in the 1890s. Tom Rourke has a poor excuse for a job as assistant to a poor excuse for a photographer, and earns drink money by writing letters for illiterate men luring brides from the east. His spare time is spent haunting brothels, racking up debt through his opium habit, and writing songs along the lines of: Ain't got a dime / But the sun's gonna shine/ Coz we's all bound for heaven/ On the Cal-i-fornee line. In his own mind, he is \"set apart from the hoarse and laughing crowd. He was at a distance of artistic remove from it was what he felt.\"

Burning bright Arundhati Roy talks forcefully about India's 'mad pathology', the self-absorbed west and globalisation
By 2001, when this collection of 12 interviews with US writer and broadcaster David Barsamian begins, Arundhati Roy was already under fire. Leftwing critics, among them Aijaz Ahmad, had attacked her Booker prize-winning The God of Small Things (1997) for its anti-communism. In Kerala, where it was set, she was charged with \"corrupting public morality\".

A disaster foretold The story behind 1986's Challenger space shuttle explosion is a gripping catalogue of underfunding and stifling bureaucracy
In 1986, two catastrophic events occurred on either side of the cold war divide that shocked the world. On 28 January, 73 seconds after takeoff, the US space shuttle Challenger broke apart in mid-air, killing all seven astronauts on board and traumatising millions of viewers watching live on TV. Three months later, on 26 April, a meltdown at Chornobyl sent a radioactive cloud across the USSR and Europe. Two workers died immediately and the estimated death toll over time ranges from hundreds to tens of thousands. It's widely believed to have contributed to the collapse of the Soviet Union.
