1.04 - Inescapable Plus+ - Deglobalisation

The Middle East is escalating and the Iran conflict may not be over. Disruptions in the Persian Gulf are already threatening critical resources — water, fuel, fertilizer — and Australian farmers are sounding the alarm on petrol shortages and rising supermarket prices.

Meanwhile questions about Western institutions keep mounting: large-scale fraud in Australia's disability support system, cultural tensions in Britain, and suspected foreign agents operating in plain sight.

Is collapse inevitable, or could deglobalisation ultimately revitalise the West?
