The Critic  |  Oct 24
In the October issue of The Critic, Jude Russo spots something about Donald Trump that both his conservative supporters and liberal opponents overlook — his surprisingly progressive social attitudes. Have we only half understood him? Also, David Elstein examines how Ofcom allowed ITV and Channel 4 to minimise their public service broadcasting commitments, Henry Hill sets out how the NHS could be reformed but argues Lord Darzi’s report is not the answer, Alexandra Wilson leaves academia with love and regrets and Jon Moynihan asks why western European economies have stopped growing. William Cook interviews the artist Sean Scully, Sarah Ditum admires the professionalism of Oasis, Toby Young explains why he still supports QPR and Patrick Kidd salutes Joe Root. All this and the customary range of arts and books reviews, tastes, sights and sounds from The Critic’s survey of contemporary culture and society.
