A couple months ago I read the news from my home country... there were mass shootings, the House of Representatives were not producing any useful legislation while the government raced toward a potential shut down, a certain ex-president was still crying foul and people were demonstrating one thing or another....

 

I am pretty sure that today I am still up to date....

The UK is an extreme example of "Heat or Eat" for a large part of the population. A harbinger for the rest of the "western world".

Actually it's not. That's a great example of how misleading the mainstream news is.

National news is hard to avoid. As for the local news out of my hometown, I have no idea what is happening.
