The Critic | October 2026
Welcome to The Critic — Britain’s monthly current affairs and culture magazine, dedicated to rigorous content and first-rate writing — and unafraid to ask the questions others won’t.
In the October issue of The Critic, Indy Bhattacharryya finds out from the Just Stop Oil and Extinction Rebellion co-founder, Roger Hallam, what he requires of civil disobedience activists. Feminist campaigner Julie Bindel meets Katy Faust, the American Christian who wants to ban gay marriage. Dominic Green questions whether J.D. Vance is a shoo-in to succeed President Trump, and Henry Hill analyses why bad headlines haven’t dented Reform’s support more.
Also, Pierre d’Alancaisez explores the growing global appeal of Middle Eastern contemporary art, Jennifer Walker admires the work of the Hungarian photographer Anna Tihanyi, John Self profiles the enigmatic Hotel du Lac author, Anita Brookner, Alexander Larman admires the Donmar’s new production of A Month in the Country, and Stephen Pollard crunches the numbers on how much difference a good manager makes to a Premier League football team.
