But the virtuous circle between deepening interdependence and expanding global governance could not last: it set in motion trends that ultimately undermined its effectiveness. And, he continued, while there is still time to keep rising temperatures within the 1.5°C limits of the Paris Agreement on climate change, Group of Twenty (G20) countries – responsible for 80 per cent of greenhouse-gas emissions — must “break their addiction” to fossil fuels. The world must phase out coal, oil and gas in a fair way, and developed countries and emerging economies must reach net zero as close as possible to 2040 and 2050, respectively.

Are you tired of traffic jams and poor train services? The answer is more privatisation and deregulation of transport, at least according to this book. The authors (an MP and a parliamentary researcher) appeal to "common sense", invite us to abandon "myths" that they fail to demonstrate are not true (for example, that more road capacity leads to more car use), and express throughout an unyielding hatred of "planners" and "bureaucrats" ("Stalinist" or at least "quasi-Marxist"), along with a touching faith in the magic panacea of "markets", while pretending strenuously that this is not a "political" position. Syrian refugees’ future is in their country, not in host countries,” he added. And the fact is refugees are far from returning. On the contrary, more Syrians are likely to leave their country as the crisis persists. And Jordan will not have the ability nor the resources to host and care for more. Jordan’s case is a microcosm of the entire region, which, he said, will continue to suffer until the world “helps lift the shadow” of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. “Without clarity on where Palestinians’ future lies, it will be impossible to converge on a political solution to this conflict,” he said. Five million Palestinians live under occupation with no say in their lives. Yet every UN resolution since the beginning of the conflict recognizes the equal rights of the Palestinian people to a future of peace, dignity and hope.

The constituency of Spelthorne is a compact seat found to the north of Surrey close to the intersection of the M25 and M3 motorways. It includes the towns of Sunbury, Stanwell, Ashford, and Staines, itself the home of the mythical TV character Ali G. Incorporating a section of the River Thames, and a number of reservoirs, this seat is very close to Heathrow airport. It contains a large amount of commercial property. Although it is less affluent than some of the Surrey seats, home ownership is high in this part of England, and Spelthorne is a safe Conservative seat which has been held by the party continuously since 1950.

He writes about the parallel world of British-style social hierarchy and how it came about in Hong Kong, where Britain ruled for 156 years. During that time, few attempts were made to promote the concept of a democratic system and most were overturned. Mohdin, Aamna (12 September 2019).
