New Statesman is a British left-of-centre political and cultural magazine published weekly in London. Founded in 1913, and connected with leading members of the Fabian Society, the magazine is the UK's most respected current affairs weekly magazine and website

In the 29 May 2006 issue, then-editor John Kampfner stated that the New Statesman remained "true to its heritage of radical politics". The magazine is committed to "development, human rights and the environment, global issues the mainstream press often ignores".

The longest serving editor was Kingsley Martin (1930–60). The current editor is Jason Cowley, who assumed the post at the end of September 2008. In 2009, Cowley was named current affairs editor of the year at the British Society of Magazine Editors awards.

The magazine is sometimes affectionately referred to as "The Staggers" because of its historical crises in funding, ownership and circulation. The nickname is now used as the title of its popular, rolling online blog.
