Is the UK Doomed to Become a Smaller Part of the Global Economy?

I did a book called Doom pointing out that there never had been anything quite like mass house arrest because in previous pandemics, you just didn't have that option. So yeah, that was a truly exceptional, and one can say unprecedented event. And the consequences in our whole range of domains, including mental health, are still, I think, far from fully grasped by policymakers. Yeah, I suspect it's an option. We're going to hope that we go rather wish that we hadn't had. Can we move on to the miseries of the UK, another country that has inflation troubles again? Things don't look like they're going that well here on the face of things,
