Ex BBC, Ex Tory, Ex Royalist, Ex football fan. if you want to change the world for the better, #LearnMMT. We can’t build the world we want with Tory economics.
There is only one source of money (and wealth) in 🇬🇧: the Govt. New money can only come through Govt spending and old money is removed through taxation. How you spend that money and who you tax determines what kins of society you have. Austerity is a political choice.
We have a government refusing doctors’ pay rise, causing NHS strikes. A Labour govt that cut aid to starving Palestinians who it is selling weaponry to Israel to kill. A Labour govt that week-in week-out, accuses foreigners of destroying our country, to justify it all. #r4today
"Mapped: The summer holiday beaches flooded with sewage. There are 139 coastal locations at which sewage has been released over past two days." The extraordinary world we now live in. Once upon a time in the run up to the school holidays newspapers would be full of the best…
I'm all for a resurgence of public ownership, but this is absolute fekkin bollocks. x.com/garyseconomics…
If the government keeps losing its wealth the welfare state is over. On @LBC just now.
Keir Starmer hobbled the Water Commission review from the beginning by preventing them from making the case for renationalisation. The Westmister establishment cabal is fully intent on continuing Thatcher's water privatisation scam.
Perfectly put.👇🏻 @garyeconomices - you should make the time to attend modernmoneylab.org.uk/events/bristol… You’ll meet brilliant people from all walks of life, committed to ending poverty and saving the planet by correcting the political abuse of our monetary system.
I like you @garyseconomics but you are reinforcing the myth that we're reliant on wealthy elites to pay taxes so we can afford to pay for public services and improved infrastructure etc. But that simply isn't true. So, here are some basic facts. The govt issues the currency so…
You’d think this would trouble the cabinet and PM, but they’re supremely unconcerned, in fact making life worse for people. This and Gaza are too much.
This is nonsense, Gary. You should do better than this. You are playing into the hands of those you seek to oppose. Come along to Bristol or Sheffield for a chat. modernmoneylab.org.uk/events/bristol… events.humanitix.com/public-money-m…

@dontdelay there’s plenty of them in that boat. Any macroeconomics they learned as they became qualified has now proven by MMT to be wrong, gets it backwards (STAB not TABS). All FPs should read The Deficit Myth as part of this year’s CPD
👇🏻 Financial advisor doesn’t understand where the UK gets its £s from.
BBC Business Today covers Zohran Mamdani running to be mayor in New York. He's promising free buses & childcare, more public housing & a rent freeze. Billionaires clearly aren't happy that things might get better for ordinary people.

Push back against Nandy is getting hotter theguardian.com/media/2025/jul…
AOC's social media tantrum after the left rejected her support for Iron Dome funding is just her yelling at people for not loving her when she does gross swamp monster things. But it doesn't work that way. You don't get to be the beloved leftist people's champion and also be the…
Oh fuck off with your lies, I'm so sick of this shit.
“I'm not going to focus on ideology." It would cost £100bn to nationalise water companies and the government would have to take that money from the NHS and education, Environment Secretary Steve Reed tells @krishgm

Happens here in Aus as well. Apparently RBA in Aus has no documented processes that tell employees how to do a task. Time all central banks were quality certified. And pvte banks as well.
