Politics overseas

 Well a lot is going on.

Canada

Trudeau has announced he will resign. I am not surprised. This is the Liberal's third term and that is one term too many. There will be an election in Canada by October and the Conservatives will win.Inflation had killed most incumbent governments and it will do so again here.

Germany

The coalition has broken up and an early election in winter will be held. This is a shame as it was a coalition led by the SPD first term. A party of right wing ratbags appears to be gaining strength.Immigration is their key.  Whether a new coalition will govern after the new election is problematic.

France

Macron seems to be still in trouble in forming a government. His disastrous decision to call early elections is coming back to haunt him.


The world seems to be in a funk
