The disparities are anything but disguised |

In this week’s newsletter, we address the developments that have unfolded in the United Kingdom. On Tuesday, Tommy Robinson, a prominent critic of Islam, received an 18-month prison sentence for contempt of court. Merely two days later, the Southport killer was charged for terrorism following the discovery of an Al Qaeda manual alongside a deadly poison in his home. How long had these details been kept hidden?
The government’s two-tiered stance has never been so painfully apparent, and the British population are only more angered now their suspicions have been confirmed, albeit following a questionably long, three-month wait. Notably, it was these suspicions that led to the locking up of protestors in the tragedy’s aftermath.
With the American election looming, we also include a cautionary tale for the Trump administration. Using Liz Truss’ short-lived tenure on Downing Street as a valuable case study, Connor Tomlinson explores how the American economy could be weaponized against our next possible President – and how to prevent it.

To comprehend the enormity of this week’s events seen in Britain, we’re reflecting on the Southport tragedy and the riots that followed.
