An important afternoon for everyone

The Diary has been preoccupied this afternoon and evening, for obvious reasons, with CNN and other coverage of the inauguration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris to the highest offices in their land.

Whatever difficulties will be highlighted over the coming days, weeks and months, like many many others with Americans in their family, we're very glad for the United States, and indeed for the world, today.

At least one nightmare is over, though we must remember 'the devil is as cute in the dark as in the light'.
