After Brexit I put £10.00 on a Trump victory.
Think I'll put the winnings on the French "Lady".

All these results are doing are to further reinforce my view me that "one person, one vote" is a flawed concept. But not as flawed as any alternative, though it is getting closer.

I blame social media and the easy availability of propaganda which is taken to be news As a result all left leaning socialist governments are doomed: the people have lost their trust in the combination of left leaning socialism and the self serving financial markets plus their handmaidens in global business. They used to believe that the state would look after them. This belief has been shattered by the arrogant stupidity of politicians. Now the masses believe that a self made egocentric like Trump is a better bet.

The EU is dead, but doesn't know it yet. The main EU countries will turn in on themselves, which can only damage the smaller countries.
The USA will become more insular and unconcerned by the world, as it was in the 1930s.
Russia will play games and do nothing constructive
China will, through investment, take over Africa.
India and South Asia offer hope.

Time to fight for CANZUK: a federation of people with common values, language and together a significant trading block.
