Rich Monday Paper London Edition 123
26 October 2026
Rich Monday Paper London Edition 123, led by Editor-in-Chief Dame Neslyn Watson-Druée DBE, takes its inspiration from the woman gracing the front cover. Dr I. Fortune Glavee has spent more than 29 years as an NHS dentist and her belief that prevention is better than cure runs through every page of her book. In her editor’s letter, Dame Neslyn asks you to be the light someone is waiting for as the clocks go back and the evenings close in. You will also find more about getting closer to our European allies. We keep the conversation going on leadership in the age of AI. You are invited to join a Victorian supper for the Hunter’s Moon, discover London’s most beautiful statues and the best places to watch the fireworks on Bonfire Night.
