Dear reader,
Britain’s chief scientists Sir Patrick Vallance and Prof Chris Whitty gave a clear warning this morning that they believe further measures will be necessary to keep Covid-19 in check and that the UK could have 50,000 new cases a day by October. Janet Daley writes that, while not the shrill lecture she had feared, the briefing raised far more questions about the efficacy of the Government’s coronavirus measures than it answered.

The death of US Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has set off another fierce political fight in Washington over her vacant seat. Yet the coming row is unlikely to overshadow what was a hugely consequential career. Our obituary tells the full and engrossing life story of the liberal pioneer and icon.
Finally, in recent years, a number of countries have turned towards so-called strongman governments. Margaret Atwood, the acclaimed author of the dystopian The Handmaid’s Tale, has watched on with unease as the parallels to today grow. In an exclusive article for The Telegraph she describes how her work was never meant to be prophetic, but that it could help us to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past.
