Columnist Comments
• Bruce Anderson: Different leadership can save church
Out of weakness its bishops condoned both terrorists and sexual terrorists.
• Alibhai-Brown: The future of politics lies with women
The leaders are trying to charm us with vacuous words and meaningless policies.
• Philip Hensher: Why Austen would never win the Booker
The ambitious novel with a regard for humour is not dead, but is beleaguered.
