Host cities from years past; officials share perspective

Tampa, Florida and Cleveland, Ohio do not have many things in common. However, both of the cities know what it is like to be in the national spotlight while hosting the Republican National Convention (RNC). 

2012 was the year Barack Obama and Mitt Romney faced off in the race for the White House. That summer, Tampa hosted the RNC.

Castor was the police chief for Tampa during the convention. She said her…

It’s not true that more migrants arrived in the UK in two years than between 1066 and 2010

A graphic shared on X (formerly Twitter) by Reform UK leader Richard Tice claims Rishi Sunak “welcomed more migrants in just two years” than arrived “between 1066 and 2010”.

This is not true.

Assuming “two years” refers to the last two years of immigration data (the year ending December 2022 and the year ending December 2023)—which overlap partially with Mr Sunak’s premiership—long-term immigration to the UK was an estimated 2,475,000.

We’ve not found immigration data going back to 1066—and we’ve asked Reform UK what the evidence for its claim is. But data we do have, which goes back to the 19th century, shows that immigration over the past century and a half, let alone over almost the past millennium, totalled far more than the amount seen in…

To sustain success over time, a leader needs to blend the various styles or flex their approach. When my colleague lost patience with me, he wanted to see a more authoritative/autocratic leader; my usual style is more affiliative/creative/democratic. 

And yes, that approach is more often associated with women. The debate continues over whether there are gender differences in…
