One last thing Does Trump's win mean that progress is history? David Mitchell, of Peep Show and That Mitchell and Webb Look, writes: A lot of people think that in general things get better over time. Well, milk doesn't. And look at the natural world: things age and die and rot. Or grow and infest and destroy. And sometimes they germinate and bloom. They don't necessarily get worse, I'm not saying that; but they don't always improve, either. Have an excellent day and if you spot something I've missed, let me know on Twitter at @earleyedition.
