It has been revealed that the Duke of Sussexes’ memoir, Spare, which first hit shelves in January 2023, will be re-released and available in shops within two months in a paperback version. An additional key move, however, shows tensions are still rife between Prince Harry and the Royal Family – the fact he is keeping quiet about its re-release, and not opening the book with a “different prologue” or highlighting any “regret”. Royal expert and historian, Tessa Dunlop, told the Mirror: “Those who suggest that this paperback release, with no additional material, is an olive branch, are sadly mistaken. New ... Read more

Liz Truss ‘considered cutting free cancer care on NHS’ as mini-Budget unravelled | Politics | News

Liz Truss reportedly considered cutting free cancer care on the NHS as her mini-Budget unravelled, prompting advisers to exclaim: “She’s lost the plot.” Historian Sir Anthony Seldon’s book about Ms Truss’s tumultuous 49 days in Downing Street claims that aides were told the former prime minister was contemplating far-reaching cuts so she could deliver her tax-cutting agenda.
