The Clacton Spear, unearthed in 1911 near Clacton-on-Sea, stands as the oldest worked wooden weapon known, crafted by Homo heidelbergensis ancestors in a forested Ice Age landscape. Discovered by amateur prehistorian Samuel Hazzledine Warren, the 38.7 cm yew point now resides in London's Natural History Museum, confirmed by microscopic flint marks and linked to nearby butchered animal bones. Recent 2025 finds from Suffolk add to the evidence of early fire-making, underscoring Britain's deep prehistoric legacy that stretches far beyond Roman times.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Imagine an early human on a misty Essex riverbank, carefully shaping yew wood into a sharp hunting spear with a flint tool—420,000 years ago.

On the New Statesman podcast, Dominic Sandbrook argued that 1950s and 1960s politicians like Harold Macmillan gained empathy from evening reads of 19th-century fiction, such as Trollope, unlike today's screen-filled nights. He suggested this 'hinterland' produced better leaders amid a shrill political landscape, a view echoed by Aaron Bastani and Michael Gove. Critics pointed to era flaws like the Suez Crisis and Soviet spies, questioning if reading alone ensured strong governance. The clip revives calls for leaders with depth beyond briefs.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Imagine prime ministers unwinding with Anthony Trollope novels instead of policy briefs or social media. Historian Dominic Sandbrook misses that era's reflective leaders.

Keir Starmer's government agreed in principle to a 700-page Gibraltar pact last year to ease post-Brexit borders, but opponents like Priti Patel call it a cover-up lacking firm sovereignty guarantees and allowing Spanish checks at key sites. They compare it to the 2025 Chagos deal, where sovereignty transferred to Mauritius while leasing back the US-UK Diego Garcia base for 99 years—now criticized by President Trump as a mistake vital for potential Iran strikes. The Foreign Office promises parliamentary scrutiny, while Gibraltar's Chief Minister supports it for economic benefits, highlighting tensions between decolonization and strategic security.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Critics are drawing sharp parallels between a new Gibraltar treaty and the Chagos handover, warning that UK sovereignty hangs in the balance amid US pressure.
