“The Forgotten Tribe” is a book about politicians mainly written by politicians. It tells the story of the shifting positions of the two main parties on Britain's membership of the EU and the consequences for their MEPs, bringing those weekly commutes to Brussels and Strasbourg to life, and a light touch is added with portraits of MEPs by their children and families. The book also covers the radical changes that gradually occurred in the two main parties' position on UK membership, and the role of UKIP and Euroscepticism generally, while also addressing the key question of the achievements and legacy of the 351 women and men who served their country and their constituents in Europe over four decades. Whatever one's views about the final outcome, these MEPs fully deserve recognition.

The rapid seizure of Afghanistan by Taliban forces in August 2021 raised grave fears of a return to patterns of human rights violations previously witnessed in the country from 1996 to 2001. Even after 2001, violence against women and girls continued on a large scale and remained chronically under-reported, but now that the Taliban has barred all women from participation in government, the situation has degraded further.
