The UK voting system has always been unbalanced, but now it is riskier than ever. I cannot understand why successive governments have resisted calls for a fairer voting system - everybody wins.

State Department to deny visas to fact checkers and others, citing 'censorship' The order is focused on applicants for H-1B visas, which are frequently used by tech companies and is part of a campaign by the Trump administration against online content moderation.

When will Trump get it into his thick head, that every time he threatens new tariffs (EU 50% today) the US stock market goes down? Why can EVERYONE else see it, plain as day?
