The Guardian (November 12)
“Theresa May chose to ride the tiger of her party instead of protecting the interests of her country. Blundering at every point, she made a very bad situation worse.” Eventually, there will come a day when “we’ll wonder how these Brexit fanatics seized the nation.”

Washington Post (August 2)
Washington may be badly broken, but “it works extremely well for its most important citizens: the lobbyists. The permanent government of the United States is no longer defined by party or a branch but by a profession comfortably encamped around the federal coffers. The result is that Washington has become the wealthiest city in the nation, and its relative position has actually improved over the past five years, during the worst recession in 75 years. The country might be struggling, but K Street is not.”
