Rwanda does not allow journalists to meet refugees: all communication with them is forbidden. All inquiries about their conditions are blocked.

That is not only unjust in its own right, it is also a hint that the refugees have something really bad to criticize.

I've read reports of repressive treatment of dissent in Rwanda for many years.

The UK Green Party calls for nationalizing the largest gas and electric utilities, and for taxing the rich to pay part of poor people's bills.

The first step is very good. The second is half good. Taxing the rich to help the poor is very important, but each poor person should get the same amount of aid regardless of how much energy perse uses. That way, poor people who can reduce their energy use will have more money to spend on other things.

*Northern Australia could have dangerously high heat most days of the year by 2100, study finds.*

*Southern regions of Australia may experience deadly heatwaves annually,*
