What happened
A tomb of an Egyptian pharaoh has been found for the first time since Tutankhamun was discovered in 1922.

A joint Egyptian-British archaeological mission identified the tomb as belonging to King Thutmose II, an ancient Egyptian king who reigned sometime between 2000 and 1001 BC.

Who said what
Officials described the discovery as "remarkable". Mohamed Ismail Khaled, the secretary general of Egypt's Supreme Court of Antiquities, said in a statement that the find was "one of the most significant archaeological breakthroughs in recent years".

Thutmose II is historically interesting because he was the "husband as well as the half-brother of Hatshepsut, one of Egypt’s greatest pharaohs and one of the few women to rule in her own right", said The Guardian. He was also the father of Thutmose III, who is considered one of the most towering rulers of ancient Egypt due to his military conquests.

What next?
Dr Piers Litherland, the head of the British side of the excavation mission, said the team would "continue its work to uncover more secrets of the area".

What happened
Left-wing activists are less likely to co-operate with their opponents than other voting blocs, a study by polling group More in Common has suggested.

The research classified about 8% of the population as "progressive activists", the most left-wing of the seven "tribes" among British voters. It found that they held starkly different views from the other blocs and were more likely to criticise those that disagreed with them.

Who said what
Progressive activists have "often been the drivers of social change in the UK", said Luke Tryl, the study's co-author. But their outlook "makes them outliers from much of the wider public".

Their tendency to "impose purity tests on those they will campaign with, overestimate how many people share their views and use language that is inaccessible to the wider public is potentially driving a backlash against progressive causes".

What next?
"If the liberal left is going to get back on the front foot it will require a much more deliberate approach to meeting people where they are," said Tryl.
