And a country whereby your health has access to your employment.
And if you haven't got employment, you don't have health care.
And if you don't have health care, you don't get mental health care.
And if you can buy a gun easily, then these sort of tragedies happen.
So I think I'll cast it on this case in that context rather than about the climate of political violence more broadly, which, of course, is a feature of American politics.
The second thing is the developments in the talks with Iran.
I'm not sure how face to face they are, who's who exactly on each side is talking to the other.
But do you believe the reports of progress?
There does seem to be an indication that there will be a one-page memorandum announced today, and that does represent progress towards opening the Strait of Hormuz, which seems to be the primary objective of this announcement.
That, of course, represents a major concession by the United States, which wanted the whole nature of the agreement to be conclusive in terms of every aspect of it, the nuclear deal,
The lifting of sanctions on Iran and the opening of the strait in perpetuity without any tools all being part of one agreement.
What we have instead is a commitment for there to be no tools in that 60-day period of the extension of the ceasefire.
We have a lifting of sanctions as part of that package, a gradual lifting of the American blockade, but then ongoing discussions at a place and date to be determined on the nuclear aspects of that in exchange for some vague commitments by the Iranians that they will perhaps allow the enriched material to be transferred out of Iran and that they will give a commitment to not enrich any material for an unspecified period.
So this does seem to be a concession by America to get the streets open.
Now, presumably, this is Trump's attempt to get the price of gas at the pump down before the midterms.
Yeah, I mean, absolutely.
This is a major factor in the cost of living.
This is a thing which will still carry on after this announcement because of the disruption to the world economy.
And that is hurting him politically.
His poll numbers are worse than they have ever been.
