London remains one of the world's most competitive business environments. From Canary Wharf to the City, ambitious professionals are constantly seeking ways to differentiate themselves in a market defined by global capital flows, technological disruption, and international competition.

The far right's success in last month's regional elections in Extremadura, Spain, was inevitable. After a series of corruption and sexual harassment allegations surrounding Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez's socialist government since the summer, everyone in Spain knew he would never pull off a victory.
