The senator and twice Democratic presidential hopeful is on tour with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez trying to build a new progressive movement. He reveals why he thinks Republicans are scared to speak up and what went wrong for Kamala Harris in 2024

‘I think what Trumpism is about, is an understanding that the system in America is not working for working-class people,” says Bernie Sanders, sat in the Guardian’s offices in London. “In a phoney, hypocritical way, Trump has tapped into that. His quote-unquote ‘solutions’ will only make a bad situation worse.”

In person, Sanders’ 83 years read differently than in photograph, perhaps because of how conversational he is. His voice is magnetic – a Brooklyn accent that feels both warm and tough. “But what I have been aware of, and I’ve talked about it for years, is that in America, the very richest people are doing phenomenally well, while 60% of our people live paycheck to paycheck.”

Older series from Vampire Diaries to Skins are among the most popular on the platform as decade enjoys a revival

It is the social media platform that likes to see itself as being on the cutting edge of the latest youth culture and setting the latest trends for others to follow. But across music, television and observations on British daily life, something more familiar is trending on TikTok – a new generation of nostalgia.

Music and TV from the 2000s are being rediscovered by gen X and ageing millennials, as well as being discovered for the first time by gen Z. Use of the #noughties nostalgia hashtag is up 36% on last year across entertainment content – while the era is also enjoying a revival in fashion.

Nigel Farage and Kemi Badenoch have much more in common with the failed Tory leader than either cares to admit

We need to talk about Liz Truss, although there are reasons not to bother. The prime minister who failed faster than any previous holder of the office has much to say about her dismal record, but nothing insightful. She cuts a pitiful spectacle padding out the schedule at rightwing conferences, chasing attention and relevance with an addict’s fervour.

Last week, Truss was at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Budapest, sharing the big lesson she learned in government. It was that British institutions have been captured by a leftist doctrine and that they “hate western civilisation”. She couldn’t possibly counter this threat from No 10 because supposedly the real power was wielded by a well-financed “globalist network”, operating through such engines of anti-democratic subterfuge as the International Monetary Fund and the World Health Organization.

Guardian US southern bureau chief Oliver Laughland heads to Starbase, Texas, to visit the home of Elon Musk’s company SpaceX as it votes on whether to become its own city

“This is the future, man,” a SpaceX fan tells Oliver Laughland as they look over at a giant rocket. “It’s a weird combination of the wild wild west and the brand new future!”

The rocket stands in Starbase, Texas, and the Guardian US southern bureau chief was visiting at a very particular time: as the area home to Elon Musk’s pioneering space company was poised to vote in an election to officially transform the place into its own city.

This solid comedy-drama features the ever-watchable Hollywood star as a washed-up pro given a shot at redemption when he mentors a teen prodigy. It’s pleasant, feelgood TV

I’ve never met a golfer in real life. I’ve always assumed I’m the wrong demographic – perhaps in terms of age, or class or at least tax bracket – or perhaps my lack of athleticism is so aggressive that it has prevented me from becoming friends with anyone with even the mildest sporting proclivity for all my life. Instead, I have essentially taken Mark Twain’s word for it that golf is a good walk spoiled, and gone about my days.

Now, however, I think golf may be the spoiler of a good new comedy drama. Stick, it’s called – a deadening name – and it stars Owen Wilson as washed-up golf pro Pryce Cahill. He had a televised meltdown during a tournament at the peak of his career (“He triple-bogeyed his entire life”) and is now reduced to selling golf kit, giving lessons to rich old ladies and hustling for cash in bars. He is also going through a divorce, and still living in the former marital home that his wife Amber-Linn (Judy Greer) – with whom he is still on good terms, bound as they are by a shared sorrow – now wants them to sell.

A hacked or compromised account can be a nightmare. But with these tips, it need not be the end of the world

Email accounts have become more than a longstanding method of communication, morphing into the centre of your digital world as the user login for hundreds of services from shopping to socials. So when you forget your password, your email gets stolen or hacked, it can be a total nightmare.

Here’s what to do if the worst happens. Quickly taking these steps can help get you back into your email and safeguard the many other accounts linked to it.

Try to change your password from a device that’s already logged in.

Use a familiar device in a familiar location that you have frequently used your email account from before, such as your computer or a phone on your home wifi. Use the same browser you usually would if you have more than one installed.

Use account recovery process for provider, such as Google or Microsoft, and access your account through your recovery email or phone if you have one.

Answer all the recovery questions to the best of your ability, including any old passwords you might remember, even if you only know part of the answer. Google and Microsoft have tips you can follow. It may take up to 24 hours for you to be verified to recover your account.

If all else fails, set up a new email account so that you can quickly migrate your logins for various sites and services to one you can control.

Set a new, strong password that is unique for your email account. The password should be at least 12 characters, but the longer the better. Use a combination of alphanumeric and special characters. Some tips include using a combination of random words, a memorable lyric or quote, and avoid simple or guessable combinations. Use a password manager to help you remember it and other important details.

Set up two-step verification using a code-generating app, rather than SMS text messages. Make sure you save your two-step backup codes somewhere safe.

Use a passkey rather than a password, which uses your device and biometrics to authenticate you and cannot be hacked like a password.

Set a recovery email and phone number to help get back into your account if you can’t log in.

Set up as many security questions as your account allows in settings and make them as difficult to guess as possible. Make sure you write the answers down somewhere safe.

Focus on capital spending in northern cities and Midlands is recognition Labour needs better economic story for voters

• Rachel Reeves looks to spending review to shift focus from welfare cuts

Rachel Reeves is announcing £15bn for trams, trains and buses outside London as she launches a charm offensive to persuade fractious Labour MPs that her spending review will not be a return to austerity.

The chancellor has begun meeting groups of backbenchers to argue that the money, part of a £113bn investment in capital projects over the rest of the parliament including transport, homes and energy, would only have happened under Labour.

Asian stocks rise as markets shrug off new US levies

Heidi Alexander, the UK transport secretary, said the priority of the UK government is to get the trade deal with the US implemented, but did not say when the deal will be finalised.

Speaking on BBC radio 4’s Today programme she said:

We were the first country in the world to do a trade deal with the US which is really good news, and as a result of that it led to the president of the US exempting the UK from that 50% tariff that he is imposing on metals from other countries being imported into the US. What we need to do as a government is get that trade deal implemented and we will be bringing forward the legislation to parliament to ensure that that happens.

My colleague Jonathan Reynolds was in Paris yesterday and he met with his US counterpart to discuss progress with implementing the trade deal that he agreed as is normal with trade deals such as this, you agree the headlines and then you work through the details, that is work that is still ongoing, but of course we need to do the work domestically within the UK to ensure that that trade deal can be implemented.

I know that business owners will want to know that we are doing absolutely everything that we can to protect them from these very challenging global economic headwinds. We are.”

We have gone through the process of doing the reset with the EU which is going to provide a lot of reassurance to people that are exporting food and drink.

Exclusive: Government-ordered review concludes term in NHS should be changed because of risks to patients’ safety

Gaza Humanitarian Foundation halts limited supply of food distribution after at least 27 killed by Israeli fire as they waited for food

The civil defence agency in Gaza said an Israeli strike on a tent housing displaced Palestinians near the southern city of Khan Younis on Wednesday killed at least 12 people. Earlier reports had put the death toll at 10 (see 7.47am BST).

“At least 12 people were killed, including several children and women, in a strike by an Israeli drone this morning on a tent for displaced persons” near Khan Younis, the agency’s spokesperson Mahmud Bassal told Agence France-Presse (AFP), adding that four more people had been killed in other strikes.
