Ever thought about fleeing the godforsaken land of Brexit and starting a new life somewhere else? Ever thought about Finland? The lovely, lucky Scandinavians about to get the world’s youngest – and probably the hippest – prime minister on the planet. Former bakery worker Sanna Marin, only 34-years-old, will begin leading a left-wing, all-female coalition government later this week. The United Kingdom, on the other hand, is expected to elect an over-privileged 55-year-old, right-wing megalomaniac who ignores pictures of sick children when they’re placed in front of him. There’s still enough time for Britain to regain its senses. There’s also enough time to pack your bags and book a flight to Helsinki.
