It's not "a world", it's just your country. It's different in different countries.

But it's a great point about selecting protected groups of population. That's also "racist" (it's in quotes because these days everything's racist).

I meant "a world" in the sense of "possible worlds"; in the same sense as I said "in an ideal world" - not in the sense of "this is the case globally".

Would you prefer "In a world in which *the UK* imprisons Connolly, *the UK* should also imprison these other people"?

I don't think my preferences are relevant. Frankly, I don't even know which one is right.
