Govts soft on corporate abuses.
Decent politicians need to push back against Farage's comments on Lucy Connelly.

‘It is time to rethink how we view and talk about migrants and tourists. When does a tourist stop being a tourist? When do they become a migrant? The term digital nomad is misleading; their extractive economic engagement is secured by class, race, and social capital.’ #responsibletourism #capetown
