Covid-19 Lockdowns Have Resulted In Democratic Freedoms Declining Across The Globe

Daily Mail: Covid lockdowns have seen democratic freedoms decline across the globe: Norway is ranked No1 for freedom, UK 16th, while France and US are labelled 'flawed democracies' 

 * Norway, Iceland and Sweden, ranked top of the Democracy Index by Economist 
 * Central African Republic, the Congo and North Korea ranked bottom again 
 * But across the board there was a decline in democracy wrought by lockdowns 
 * Portugal and France were most affected by tough rules from their governments 
 * In the US, Trump's voter fraud claims and Big Tech interference battered trust 

Coronavirus lockdowns have stripped the world of democratic freedoms, with 2020 returning the worst scores in the 15-year history of an annual democracy index. 

The United Kingdom slipped two places, while France and Portugal joined the US in the 'flawed democracies' categories compiled in the Economist's Democracy Index. 

Norway, Iceland and Sweden were unchanged at the top, the Central African Republic, the Congo and North Korea, stayed bottom. 


WNU Editor: It is interesting to see Canada is ranked number five after Norway, Iceland, Sweden, and New Zealand. I live in Montreal, and we are now currently under curfew from 8:00 PM to 5:00 AM.

  1. The US ranking needs to be near North Korea's ranking.

    "Interracial marriages are more likely to occur within the military than outside it. Moreover, these unions nearly have doubled over the last 20 years. Contributing factors include diverse national recruitment, international exposure, and education."

    But we have these jackasses that will tell any lie to carry water for the Democrats to score points.

    So many people in the Democrat party, who can trade kneepad rips.
