Three prime ministers, four chancellors, its easy to lose track how many governments the UK has had in recent months. Today there is talk of Boris Johnson in the running to become the next British pm.
Trump may well be the next US president, Georgia Meloni is set to be the next Italian prime minister.
Orban in Hungary has stood in solidarity with Trump.
How many prime ministers has Australia had in recent years? Sweden has voted in a right wing government.
Is democracy as we know it collapsing?
Decent people are saying that the world of politics is becoming close to unbearable and ask the question how could any young person be attracted to the art.
Is social media to blame? Are we all beginning to express in the open out hatred for each other? What’s going on?
And all the time the propaganda machines in Iran, Russia and China attempt to tell the world that the West has become decadent and they are on a crusade to protect the planet.
Catherine Belton in her book ‘Putin’s People’ claims that Putin’s Russia has spent billions supporting far right and far left parties in democratic countries around the world. She might well be right.
