How #gravetok videos of cleaning headstones went viral
Amelia Tait talks to the people painstakingly scrubbing and restoring graves – and posting wildly popular footageThe gravestone in Helensburgh cemetery is in loving memory of someone, but it’s hard to tell exactly who. Exposure to 92 years of Scottish weather has rendered it grimy and grubby, but two small streaks of white at the bottom corner catch Ryan Nott’s attention on a rainy day in May. And so, the next day, the 31-year-old student accommodation manager comes back with a car boot full of

Direct action is stirring the popular imagination. It might also reshape leftwing politics | Will Hutton
Surging support for Enough is Enough, Don’t Pay and others could force Labour to harden its stanceWhat matters is winning and holding political power. For the left, that is not quite the same easy proposition as it is for the right. To be on the left is to want to assert social justice and challenge exploitation from whatever quarter. To support a growing social movement with militancy on the streets, however offputting it might be to many swing voters, surely advances the cause more than the gr

Face and hair masks: 10 of the best
These products are often overlooked, but they can make a real differenceHere’s the thing about masks. Most people don’t use them. Or if they do, they see it as a rare beauty treatment that forms part of a pampering ritual. In reality, if you really are interested in the condition and health of your skin and/or hair, masks should form an integral aspect of your ritual. Masks for your face treat a myriad of issues in a way that your daily cleanser or moisturiser just can’t. A well-formulated skinc

We should be arguing with alacrity over all of the above, dismissing each other’s opinions as worthless. Have you ever actually played the game? You don’t know what you’re talking about. All the usual brickbats an

The Forgiven review – brooding tale of crime and punishment starring Fiennes and Chastain
Ralph Fiennes and Jessica Chastain play a couple en route to a weekend of debauchery in the desert in this morality tale from John Michael McDonaghBeneath the garishly brittle portrait of ghastly westerners lording it up in Morocco, there’s a low-key, brooding quality to this accomplished if somewhat inert screen adaptation of Lawrence Osborne’s 2012 bestseller. Written and directed by John Michael McDonagh, whose screen CV includes The Guard (2011), Calvary (2014) and War on Everyone (2016), it

A womansplaining meme is something to shout about | Emma Beddington
Why a woman yelling into a man’s ear is joyfully subversiveI’m going to talk about a meme. That makes me imagine my father glaring in disgust at the word and grinding his teeth, like Uncle Matthew in Nancy Mitford’s The Pursuit of Love does at the word “weekend”. Or Zadie Smith, her fine intellect, sharp as a Japanese blade, undulled by scrolling (I think about her and her social media ban often). Zadie Smith does not need to know about memes.I know about memes, because while Zadie Smith was cre

Poetic justice: WB Yeats’s time in London to be celebrated at last
Years of campaigning will come to fruition this week with the unveiling of a sculpture in Bedford Park to the great writerHomesickness often brings fellow expats together and drives the creative impulse, prompting exiled artists to pick up the brush, or poets the pen. So the unveiling this week of a new tribute to the burning 20th-century Irish talent who wrote of the land of his birth from the English capital should not be a surprise.What is perhaps surprising is how long it has taken.
