The Conjuring universe offers up another handsomely made yet astonishingly empty chapter about the havoc-wreaking demonic doll There’s an extraordinary amount of creaking in demonic doll threequel Annabelle Comes Home, a schlocky horror set in a world where every door and cupboard hinge could do with a healthy smattering of oil. But perhaps the loudest creaking comes from the film’s overarching Conjuring universe, a loosely fact-based $1.5bn franchise that’s finding it harder to justify each expanding new chapter.

Where once Commons jibes might have hurt, now they bounce off. She has a perspective on her life How times change. Two months ago a statement by the prime minister on the latest EU council meeting would have been considered a significant occasion. One worthy of a full House of Commons. Now the government is so marginal – not just to the EU but to the country itself – that the chamber was barely a third full. And those who did bother to turn up were only there because it was a slow Monday afternoon, there was sod all on TV and they had nothing better to do with their lives.

20:15Boris Johnson’s chaotic private life parallels his public pronouncements | Suzanne Moore - Guardian Unlimited CommentThe separation between private and public is dubious – when it comes to our politicians, what should be off-limits? They sit in a field, no drinks on the table, loved up as never before – or so we are to believe. We are expected to call them Boris and Carrie, as though they are people we might know or even like. How much can we be played? All that plays in my head is Grace Jones snarling Chrissie Hynde’s superb lines: “Your sentimental gestures only bore me to death / You’ve made a desperate appeal now save your breath / Attachment to obligation through guilt and regret / Shit that’s so wet.

19:56The Guardian view on Tory leadership: politics may not survive Brexit | Editorial - Guardian Unlimited CommentThe Brexit virus that is running through the Conservatives may end up shutting down both the party and the electoral system that supports it The threat by a Conservative minister to bring down the government of the next party leader if he attempts to leave the European Union without a deal shows how the Brexit virus, having hijacked the Tory machine, could end up shutting it down. It would be wrong to regard such warnings as a bluff. When push comes to shove, such MPs are likely to be in no mood for compromise. This attitude will have been hardened if Boris Johnson becomes party leader (...) -- Brexit, Conservative leadership, Boris Johnson, Conservatives, Politics, Jeremy Hunt, Theresa May, Brexit party, Nigel Farage, Article 50, UK news, European Union, Foreign policy

19:55The Guardian view on female voice assistants: not OK, Google | Editorial - Guardian Unlimited CommentWhen computer assistants reply in female voices, are they saying that women lack power in their world? Within two years there will be more voice assistants on the internet than there are people on the planet. Another, possibly more helpful, way of looking at these statistics is to say that there will still be only half a dozen assistants that matter: Apple’s Siri, Google’s Assistant, and Amazon’s Alexa in the west, along with their Chinese equivalents, but these will have billions of microphones at their disposal, listening patiently for sounds they can use.

Sally Watson calls for protected lanes, John Kirkwood and Simon Geller describe their experience of cycling in the US, and Matt Caine says London is heading in the right direction While some people may be happy cycling in painted lanes (Millions wasted painting ‘gesture’ cycle lanes, 17 June; Letters, 19 June), research suggests that most people don’t think they are safe. We need to design cycling infrastructure that works for everyone, not just the 3% of the population who cycle already.

We have both travelled extensively and I can honestly say that Iran is one of the friendliest countries we have visited. Tourists are very welcome, and many people wanted to have their picture taken with us and speak to us about the UK. Nobody threatened us and people went out of their way to help us and be hospitable.

Readers respond to a piece analysing the language of Love Island and share their personal linguistic bugbears David Shariatmadari has a point when he characterises resistance against neologisms such as “I was like…” as inconsistent and futile (Love Island is a lesson in how language, like, evolves, 22 June). However, a more worrying point, which he might have addressed, is the way in which – no doubt due to the same processes that lead to the introduction of such terms – single words or phrases come to dominate language, killing off any opposition, and ultimately impoverishing it; to the (...) -- Language, Love Island, Television, Culture, Television & radio, Radio 4, BBC, Media, Marketing & PR, Radio industry, UK news

18:57British Library cafe should treat staff like adults and not take away their mobiles | Letter - Guardian Unlimited CommentI wonder about the extent to which employers go in their desire to control those who have the misfortune to depend on them for their livelihood, writes Prof Anita J Prazmowska Standing waiting for my English breakfast tea in the Last Word cafe in the forecourt of the British Library. A supervisor breezed in and interrupted service to scoop up mobiles from the counter staff. These were retrieved from bags and from a lower shelf. As she departed with her hands full, I asked what was the reason for this intriguing performance. She was called back and explained to me that this was because the (...) -- British Library, Mobile phones, Guardian Careers, Libraries, Work & careers, Money, Mobile phones, Consumer affairs, Telecoms, Technology, Smartphones, Books

Scott Andrew says British universities have slipped down QS league tables because of the coalition’s structural reforms. Michael Reardon objects to the focus on Cambridge and notes the progress of other universities Is the Brexit vote really as central to understanding Britain’s universities slipping down the QS league tables as your article suggests (British universities plunge again in league table after Brexit vote, 19 June)? The more fundamental cause is surely the structural reforms undertaken by the coalition government. Switzerland is not in the EU and yet ETH Zurich is going from (...) -- Brexit, Article 50, UK news, European Union, Foreign policy, Politics, Universities, Higher education, Education, University of Cambridge, University of Manchester

Jonathan Williams notes that Henry James once referred to the town as ‘a kind of watery suburb of Dublin’ Joseph O’Connor’s sprightly profile of Dún Laoghaire (Review, 22 June) mentions that Oscar Wilde, Samuel Beckett and Bram Stoker had all once walked the town’s East Pier. Another celebrated writer, Henry James, stayed at the Royal Marine Hotel in July and August 1891, overlooking the seafront in what was then Kingstown, wrote two short stories (The Chaperon and The Private Life) during his visit, and no doubt strolled the pier.

18:43Medicalising everyday life doesn’t help anyone’s mental health | Adrian Massey - Guardian Unlimited CommentNot all suffering is mental illness. Pretending it is raises false hopes and puts pressure on an already strained NHS I have a growing sense of unease about the Americanisation of British society’s attitude towards mental health. In the 1980s, British audiences smiled bemusedly at neurosis-laden Woody Allen films and the normality with which American television and cinema treated notions of therapy, meds and interventions. To a British ear, the protagonists of these human melodramas could seem self-absorbed, foolish and narcissistic; figures of fun to be pitied for their inability to (...) -- Mental health, Health, Society, NHS, UK news, Psychiatry

18:24The real scandal behind Britain’s falling life expectancy | Lucinda Hiam and Martin McKee - Guardian Unlimited CommentThe health gap between rich and poor is an issue the Tory leadership candidates seem happy to overlook Given the frenzied speculation about who will be the next leader of the Conservative party and thus prime minister, it was understandable that other news would get far less attention. Last week it was reported that the infant mortality rate (IMR) in England and Wales had worsened, for the third year in a row. The report from the Office for National Statistics (ONS), covering 2017, said that “the infant mortality rate increased to 3.9 deaths per 1,000 live births compared with 3.8 in (...) -- Life expectancy, Poverty, Social exclusion, Welfare, Conservatives, Politics, UK news, Health, Society

17:57Erdoğan’s loss in Istanbul could transform Turkish politics | Sinan Ülgen - Guardian Unlimited CommentThe landslide election of Ekrem İmamoğlu as mayor is a huge test for Turkey’s ruling AKP The opposition candidate Ekrem İmamoğlu’s landslide victory in the re-run mayoral elections in Istanbul will change very little in Turkish politics in the near term. But it has the potential to change everything in the long run. After winning the Istanbul elections in March with a margin of 13,000 votes in a constituency of 10 million, İmamoğlu was denied victory on dubious legal grounds, with the High Electoral Council decreeing that new elections should be held on 23 June. On Sunday, the Istanbul electorate (...) -- Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, World news

17:20I was Boris Johnson’s boss: he is utterly unfit to be prime minister | Max Hastings - Guardian Unlimited CommentThe Tory party is about to foist a tasteless joke upon the British people. He cares for nothing but his own fame and gratification Six years ago, the Cambridge historian Christopher Clark published a study of the outbreak of the first world war, titled The Sleepwalkers. Though Clark is a fine scholar, I was unconvinced by his title, which suggested that the great powers stumbled mindlessly to disaster. On the contrary, the maddest aspect of 1914 was that each belligerent government convinced itself that it was acting rationally. It would be fanciful to liken the ascent of Boris Johnson to (...) -- Conservative leadership, Boris Johnson, Politics, Brexit, Conservatives, Media, Newspapers, Daily Telegraph
