How strong are the institutions of liberal societies?
LIBERAL democracies, while not exactly on the brink of a descent into fascism, are facing a period of crisis. Tomorrow, when Americans go to the polls, one of the major-party candidates will be a man whose campaign has dispensed with the notion that its talking points should bear any resemblance to truth, and who has routinely promised to take measures in office which would violate the spirit or letter of the law and constitution.

Although the airline has been hit by Brexit, it says it will respond by shifting capacity growth next year from Britain to countries such as Germany, Italy and Poland.
