He’s back stronger than ever! But have we conveniently forgotten the furore around the presidential election results and the Capitol riots? Refresh your memory in this book. He may have been resurrected, but many other leaders fell by the wayside during the cataclysmic post-pandemic aftermath. In Britain leadership became a merry-go-round of comings and goings. Elsewhere, Australia, New Zealand, Brazil and Germany all changed leaders for one reason or another. But Putin, Lukashenko and Xi are still with us - for better or for worse. We should learn from our past, but it seems we don’t. Trump aside, the Middle East conflict has flared up worse than before, and many of the other global conflicts and tensions that are highlighted in this volume are still with us unresolved. All the posturing and platitudes that emanated from the anger surrounding George Floyd’s murder proved as useful to addressing the real issues as someone offering ’an unreserved apology.’ Meanwhile, the rich get richer and the poor poorer.
