Iceland did something after the 2008–09 crash that the US, UK and EU pretend is impossible as Trump and his vile ilk ride rough shod over our democracies. It confronted and punished its corrupt bankers and failed politicians. And rebuilt a fairer society from the rubble. 🧵

Typhoon Ragasa live: Two million people evacuated in southern China after deaths in Taiwan and Philippines
Schools and businesses closed in Hong Kong and Guangdong as powerful winds and rain set to hit after destruction across Taiwan and Philippines * Ragasa: at least 14 killed in Taiwan * In pictures: Ragasa’s path of destruction Taiwan premier Cho Jung-tai called on Wednesday for an inquiry into what went wrong with evacuation orders in an eastern county where flooding from a breached mountain lake during a strong typhoon killed 14, as fresh warnings spooked residents, reports Reuters. Sub-tropical Taiwan, frequently hit by typhoons, normally has a well-oiled disaster mechanism that averts mass casualties by moving people out of potential danger zones quickly. But many residents in Guangfu, an inundated town in the beauty spot of Hualien thronged by tourists, said there was insufficient warning when the lake overflowed during Tuesday’s torrential rains brought by Super Typhoon Ragasa. For the 14 who have tragically passed away, we must investigate why evacuation orders were not carried out in the designated areas. This is not about assigning blame, but about uncovering the truth.
