Fiscal Rules Have Boxed In UK Policy

The UK is stuck in a self-inflicted fiscal trap. Larry Elliott, former Guardian Economics Editor and my co-author in the Green New Deal, joins me to explain why Rachel Reeves’ rulebook is economic guesswork, how the Bank of England is failing to control inflation and why capital controls could help rebuild Britain’s productive economy. Plus, the technology hype cycle, the risk of an AI bubble, and where new political leadership might emerge to take us beyond neoliberalism. And in all that, a message of hope.
