There can be little doubt US treasury support of the Peso & Trumps warnings if Argentines didn't back Milei's government helped delilver an impressive result for the libertarian president. The question must now be what Trump gets in return.

How unusual despite the corruption in politics to see a once powerful man make his way to jail. Clearly, a sight many would like to see more & feel our legal systems should provide. It's also ironic as 2 parts of the french state look paralysed the 3rd part appears just fine.

Right-wing populists defined UK politics for 10 years. So it's refreshing to see the left give it a proper go, but this time it's the greens. Unlike corbyn Zack Polansky engages the media & calls out brexit. He even keeps a straight face when saying a wealth tax could raise 15-25bn in revenue.
