Another, interesting and well written piece by Ralph Leonard. I should like to hear his suggestions about how to “reconstruct the global order so that desperate migrants are not trying to smuggle themselves into Europe, North America, Australia and elsewhere.” Without even dealing with current wars, I would suggest we need to tackle slavery, 40 million people, with a disproportionate number of women are truly oppressed worldwide (9 millions enslaved in the continent of Africa alone, which should be acknowledged by BLM). Then religious and cultural violence as seen in the murderous campaign against Christians by Fulani and Boko Haram Islamic forces in Northern Nigeria. The Taliban destroying the Bamiyan Buddha’s, ISIS’s destruction of Palmyra and campaign against all those who see the world differently to them – many more examples could be given. How about tapering off aid which stops local enterprise and sustains corrupt governments. We need ideas and action.
