Over the weekend, the US Supreme Court overturned the historic 1973 Roe v Wade ruling that recognised a woman's constitutional right to an abortion. This ignited a political firestorm within the country and also sent shockwaves around the world. We break down the reasons why.

Some have come forward to defend the agent’s actions, while others have labelled her a cheapskate. We discuss the norms of balloon gifting, and how the situation could have been better handled.
