Here is my prediction - I think the Fed funds rate will be cut by about 1% this year - 4 x 0.25 at a time - I think they will panic and will suddenly move down - they will drag other central banks with them - soon enough you will see QE which is not called QE being talked about

But the Sunday Times reports that the Deputy NSA's decision not to provide evidence that went as far as the CPS wished was a 'political' decision. If that is so, then it is hard to see how the Security Minister and the Prime Minister have not mislead Parliament. /4

This is deranged. Despite tens of billions invested in solar and wind there are only about 40,000 jobs in both sectors combined. Given the subsidies involved, each one at a cost of over £200,000, which is unsustainable. The result is the most expensive industrial electricity

"Whenever I see you on screen it's a very weaponised politics. It's about identifying an enemy." "When you allow unvetted men into our country... and they end up raping a girl... of course I'm gonna call it out." Munya Chawawa clashes with Reform's Laila Cunningham. #Newsnight

This is standard mmt doctrine which makes sense however that doesn't mean the state can print for unproductive purposes - if you want to print £50 billion to build nuclear power stations then you've created a public good - you'll generate lower cost electricity which will lead to
“How long can governments live beyond their means?” asks @TheEconomist. The answer is simple: a govt that issues its own currency can’t “live beyond its means”. It creates the means. The real limits are our resources, not the Treasury’s spreadsheet. This old household analogy,

Brilliant, after letting China buy the data infrastructure used by MI6, Cabinet Office, MoD etc for secret data -- and covering up and lying about it this week - the government now wants to let China buy ALL THE WATER SUPPLY FOR LONDON. *The system is working as intended*

Simple question for the lobby to ask No10 press office: Can you confirm J Powell wrote a box note for the PM on the China spy case and will the PM give this note to Parliament so MPs can see whether the PM misled the House? (I'm told by officials in No10/CO that JP was

This is so tame from Liz Truss. Yes, we should do fracking. But 20 year CfDs for Clean Power 2030 are now the biggest threat to energy independence and affordability. As @aDissentient has pointed out, here’s the real issue 👇 Britain’s electricity system is drowning in
Key question is whether @conservatives are prepared to back fracking and make Britain energy independent? Everything else is just talk.
