We, Israeli citizens residing in Israel & abroad, call on the international community – the UN and its institutions, the United States, the European Union, the League of Arab States, & all states around the world – to intervene immediately & implement every possible sanction (1)

Current government deficit in historical (and sectoral) context. Gov balance + Private Sect balance + Foreign balance % GDP % GDP % GDP (-7.5%) + (3.8%) + (3.7%) = 0

By all means tax people who have too much wealth, Jeremy, because too much wealth inequality is an evil, but you could have benefited while Labour leader from knowing that you don't need their money before a govt can act to improve people's lives. Always happy to chat about MMT

You can find other people on here tweeting incomplete/misleading/politicized visuals about government deficits. This thread is for those who would rather take the time to learn something.

Here's the thing... Reeves doesn't have to borrow £s for her investment. The City spivs want her to, cos that's one way they can make a turn. A sovereign currency issuer, as Keynes famously stated, can afford whatever it can do. Finding the money is never the issue. A 🧵

Can someone community note this garbage? Govt spending is currency creation, not “borrowing”. Interest paid is just more currency creation. There’s no such thing as “taxpayer money”. Govt can never run out of £ or go bust. Anything achievable is affordable.
