New Zealand has always been at the vanguard of democratic reform, giving women the vote in 1893. But they waited until the 1990s to free themselves from First Past the Post - and ensure that not only did everyone have the vote, but that they had an equal vote.
How did New Zealand get proportional representation?

The UK & other rich countries just gifted U.S. corporations’ a major exemption from int'l tax rules.

THIS is what Trump had to say about how drug pricing negotiations happened.

He is laughing at the UK and so many other countries who accepted huge price hikes. How utterly humiliating for Keir Starmer and Wes Streeting.
