There’s an awful lot of coffee in Brazil, as the Coffee Song famously stated. An awful lot of corruption in the political class too. Almost every party has its leaders either on trial or awaiting trial. The one person not accused of any personal dishonesty is the president, Dilma Rousseff, so of course, in our topsy-turvy world, she’s the one that’s been thrown out of office.
