‘I don’t date at all now’: one woman’s journey into the darkest corners of the manosphere
When Jess Davies was 15, a boy leaked pictures she’d shared with him. At 18, she was a glamour model. A few years later, another man violated her trust. Then she fought back Jess Davies was a 15-year-old schoolgirl, sitting in an art lesson, absorbed in her fairytale project about a princess and a postman, when her Nokia phone began to vibrate with messages. “Nice pictures,” read one. “I didn’t think you were that type of girl,” said another. To this day, she remembers the racing thoughts, the instant nausea, the hairs prickling up on her legs, the sweaty palms. She had shared a photograph of herself in her underwear with a boy she trusted and, very soon, it had been sent around the school and across her small home town, Aberystwyth, Wales. She became a local celebrity for all the wrong reasons. Younger kids would approach her laughing and ask for a hug. Members of the men’s football team saw it – and one showed someone who knew Davies’s nan, so that’s how her family found out. Continue reading...

Denied, detained, deported: the people targeted in Trump’s immigration crackdown
These are some of the people ensnared by the administration’s unprecedented measures to target people it believes oppose its agenda Donald Trump retook the White House vowing to stage “the largest deportation operation in American history”. As previewed, the administration set about further militarizing the US-Mexico border and targeting people requesting asylum and refugees while conducting raids and deportations in undocumented communities, detaining and deporting immigrants and spreading fear. Critics are outraged, if not surprised. But few expected the new legal chapter that unfolded next: a multipronged crackdown on certain people seen as opponents of the US president’s ideological agenda. This extraordinary assault has come in the context of wider attacks on higher education, the courts and the constitution. Continue reading...
The Alienation Effect by Owen Hatherley review – meet the brutalists
The remarkable story of how British culture was transformed by émigré architects, filmmakers and writers The Englishness of English Art sounds like something a parish-pump little Englander might like to bang on about, but it is in fact the title of an arresting study by the German Jewish émigré Nikolaus Pevsner. “Neither English-born nor English-bred,” as he put it in his foreword, he nevertheless pinned down with startling precision the qualities that characterised English art and architecture: a rather twee preference for cuteness and compromise, for frills and fripperies. This shouldn’t surprise us. Newcomers are typically better placed than natives when it comes to deciphering unwritten social codes. Unencumbered by textbook propaganda and excessive knowledge, the stranger’s-eye view very often has the merit of freshness, even originality. Bertolt Brecht dubbed this the Verfremdungseffekt, or alienation effect, from which Owen Hatherley takes his title. Continue reading...

They join a list that includes Egil Olsen (Wimbledon, 1999-2000), Alan Smith (Crystal Palace, 2000-01), Roberto Mancini (Manchester City, 2012-13), Steve Lovell (Gillingham, 2018-19), Nigel Pearson (Watford, 2019-20; because of Covid he was sacked on 19 July), Max Allegri (Juventus, 2023-24), Miguel de la Fuente (Real Ávila, 2024-25; replaced by Víctor Valdés).

Why the latest amendments to Karachi’s building regulations are a recipe for disaster
The Sindh Building Control Authority (SBCA) has once again struck at the foundations of urban planning and the general public’s interest in Karachi. Ironically, these are the very two tenets the SBCA was established to safeguard more than four decades ago. Through a notification issued in March, the authority amended certain provisions of the Karachi Building and Town Planning Regulations 2002 (KBTPR), blurring the lines between amenity, residential and commercial use of plots and effectively permitting the utilisation of residential plots for commercial activities. {try{this.style.height=this.contentWindow.document.body.scrollHeight+'px';}catch{}}, 100)" width="100%" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" style="height:250px;position:relative" src="https://www.dawn.com/news/card/1902792" sandbox="allow-same-origin allow-scripts allow-popups allow-modals allow-forms"> The effect of the amendment is not only illogical and contrary to regulatory intent, but i
