In 2014, the Progressive Liberal Party completely restructured local governance systems, placing cities at the centre. The principal unit of political power is now the city region, and the most powerful political figures are their directly elected mayors. The new ‘city states’ compete not only internationally but also with each other for investment and skilled labour, and increasingly for resources such as water and energy.
Um…
Assuming there was a choice between only these specific outcomes, “Winds of Change” is the only one sensible option and the only sustainable one, therefore it is the only one that definitely won’t happen in any English speaking country.
