Montana Governor Steve Bullock, participating in his first presidential debate, opened by criticizing his fellow candidates for being too liberal in the first debate last month in Miami. “Watching that last debate, folks seemed more concerned about scoring points or outdoing each...

The Fashion Freak Show is quite unlike anything we’ve seen in a long time. More a cabaret revue than a straightforward theatrical experience, it’s a sort-of biographical show, offering a handful of snapshots into key moments of Gaultier’s life and career, alongside some comedy sketches, photoshoots, catwalks and party scenes. The dramatic element is paper thin, and it’s wildly indulgent and self-congratulatory, but the multi-talented troupe of performers ensure that it’s also tremendous fun. Essentially it’s two hours of dancing,...

In the spirit of brotherhood, many US citizens took to Twitter to offer their sympathy to Britons for having Boris Johnson as their new prime minister.

The 16-year-old Swedish environmentalist Greta Thunberg is to address the French parliament on Tuesday afternoon but she is likely to get a frosty reaction from a group of right-wing MPs. On Saturday, Guillaume Larrivé, presidential candidate of Les Républicains, called on his colleagues to "boycott" Thunberg’s speech at the National Assembly. “We don't need apocalyptic gurus to fight climate change intelligently, we need scientific progress and political courage.” Republican Julien Aubert also announced that he would not show up to “applaud the...

Boris Johnson has been crowned the new leader of Britain’s Conservative Party, and will become Prime Minister of the United Kingdom at its most critical moment of modern times. The 55-year-old beat Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt in the runoff to replace Theresa May. “My chances of being PM are about as good as the chances of finding Elvis on Mars, or my being reincarnated as an olive,” he once said — one of many statements in which he may never have...
