The Critic | May 2025
The May issue of The Critic asks whether the future of British conservatism rests not with Kemi Badenoch nor Nigel Farage but Robert Jenrick, Patrick Porter assesses the risks and limits of a British military presence in Ukraine, Daniel DePetris unpicks President Trump’s tactics towards Iran, Jo Bartosch talks to Reem Alsalem the UN’s “sex realist” rapporteur on violence against women, and Barry Norris goes on a road trip through Javier Milei’s Argentina. Max Bayliss finds reasons to be cheerful in England’s remaining monasteries, and Jacob Phillips enjoys suburban solace at a Hare Krishna mock Tudor mansion, but Patrick Kidd is less happy that even affluent Blackheath is becoming a retail wasteland. New theatre critic Alexander Larman reviews Manhunt, Adam LeBor salutes Netflix’s The Leopard, stylist Hannah Betts looks good in polka dots, Norman Lebrecht loses hope for Russian classical composition under Putin, and Boris Starling bids farewell to Everton’s Goodison Road.
