    How Different Might the Word be in 2017?

    Was just thinking about the fact that a lot of 'names of my generation' are dying off in 2016 (minor issue in many ways), plus the Brexit vote, plus the US presidential election in November - Trump, Clinton, Bernie, Cruz, European border/immigrant issues...

    The world could feel like a very different place come 2017. I'm sure there are also other 'big issues' I'm not thinking of right now.

    Anyone care to venture any thoughts on the future?

    Imagine if Trump and Corbyn ended up in power at the same time, that could redefine the "special relationship" between our countries

    Trump is actually quite 'left wing' in many ways.

    He is very protectionist, against free trade. He and Corbyn have quite a bit in common on that front.

    It isn't exactly a massive thing such as politics, or anything but virtual reality is coming to the main stream, well if you have the money, not just implications for games but also for things like medicine with surgeries across the internet, I can see it making a increasing impact on daily things in 2017 as it becomes more refined.
