Reposted by Willironeconomist.bsky.social @ironeconomist.bsky.social · 23hIn the simplest and most reductive way, the Uk political class seems to have resolved to pay 4% of gdp a year to investors to avoid raising taxes by 2% if gdp a year. It sounds mental when you put it like that but that’s actually the situation. 15413

And yet they are consistently rude to, and about, him. Rude about his suit at their renewal, for instance. He also clearly loves Lorerlai and is kind to & supportive of her. 000
