Dale isn't an idiot, but he suffers from the same Holy Grail approach to economics that's just seen Starmer giving away yet more British assets to private equity firms.

Philip Esformes, whose 20-yr prison sentence for a massive, $1.3 billion Medicare fraud was commuted in 2020 by Trump, arrested over in Fl. Esformes is at least the 7th person who received clemency from Trump, only to be charged with new crimes. cnbc.com/2024/10/15/tru…

David McNab @[email protected] Zack Polanski I love the ignorance in talking about a magical money tree, when it is the most basic reality of a currency creating state being able to spend on what it wants to. These idiots or liars (maybe both) don't talk about the differences between currency using and creating governments.

“Most finance goes back into finance, insurance and real estate rather than into productive uses. The acronym for this is FIRE (finance, insurance, real estate)” -Mariana Mazzucato

David McNab @[email protected] Zack Polanski Zack now needs to keep pushing this narrative at every possible opportunity, as indeed does every other The Green Party member. It's a game changer both for the party and for the country

Morning news journalists can talk more nonsense about Taylor Swift or they can put to Labour MPs their governments connections to genocide? Which will they choose.

Excellent and necessary article by Nicholas Shaxson: "Starmer seems to be taking the side of global monopoly power over the people of Britain." It's a craven and ultimately self-defeating approach. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

I don't understand how taking £40 billion out of the economy is supposed to help the economy. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Inflation is over: now it’s time for massive cuts in the interest rate taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2024/10/1… Inflation has fallen below two power cent. Now it is time for interest rates to do the same thing - because there is no inflation risk left that interest rates could ever manage, and

The modern equivalent:  Sacrificing lives to satisfy the market God, neoclassical religion, and its priests

“UK inflation fell unexpectedly to 1.7%” Not a surprise to anyone who knows how money is created. ‘Sound’ money zealots think you can’t get deflation with fiat money. We’re heading that way & it’s got nothing to do with Reeve’s concocted ‘black hole’ bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

As Jason Hickel explains it, it couldn’t be clearer. Why is this view so taboo in the Western press?

This gruesome woman must be stopped and these proposals binned. Mental health patients' fitness for work is a matter for themselves, their families and health professionals, not untrained DWP bureaucrats. Disruptive pressure can ruin recovery programmes. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

I helped Bill Mitchell launch his new book - Modern Monetary Theory, Bill and Warren's excellent adventure - with an excellent conversation at Readings bookstore. It was filmed. Here it is: youtube.com/watch?v=vNfN3N…

podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the… The News Agents doing what they do best: fretting over whether Reeves has broken an election pledge instead of explaining whether the policy is good or bad for the economy. We are not well served by journalism in the UK.

Private healthcare is asking the govt to guarantee them public money and contracts for the long term. Madness! Take 1 min to send @We_ownit's letter to Wes Streeting now, demanding he reject that plan. weownit.org.uk/buildournhs

Jo Maugham Wes Streeting MP Streeting’s agenda was clear, even when in opposition. Get him gone The Labour Party.

This is absolutely the root cause of many of our global problems

Interesting that the GLP is supporting an ex Board member of the Charity Commission + a group of MPs in this. Laughable that the IEA, is allowed to masquerade as an educational charity, whilst driving a hard Brexit, Truss’s bonkers economic *plan* & promoting extreme views
