Olivia Newton-John will rightly be best remembered for her iconic role in Grease, says Sarah Vine in the Daily Mail. Back then, cinema was all hard-edged and gritty – think The Godfather and A Clockwork Orange ­– but for us teenagers, Grease was a “Technicolour blast of nostalgia”. There’s “no doubt it spoke to my generation”. Yet today, “it would be cancelled at the first focus group”. To start with, there’s the “rapey” lyrics: “Tell me more, tell me more, did she put up a fight?” Then there’s the wolf-whistling at Sandy’s vampish look – soon to be a criminal offence if Liz Truss has her way. And Danny is guilty of “endless gaslighting”: after a misguided lunge, he sulks at Sandy that “I thought I meant something to you”.

I can’t understand Amnesty International’s “moral myopia” on Ukraine, says Max Boot in The Washington Post. Last year, the human rights organisation announced that it no longer considered Vladimir Putin critic Alexei Navalny a “prisoner of conscience”, because he had “once echoed some Russian nationalist views”. That decision was reversed after it prompted widespread outrage. But now Amnesty has issued a bizarre statement accusing Ukrainian forces of “violating the laws of war”, on the basis that they use weapons “in populated residential areas, including in schools and hospitals”. Yes, the same Ukrainian forces that are desperately fighting off an entirely unprovoked attack by “a merciless and bloodthirsty foe”.
