The Other Hand28 Loka 2021

Economists still don't know what causes inflation? Is it, today, a nice problem to have? Can Johnson keep his electoral coalition intact?

Leading economist Duncan Weldon once again joins The Other Hand to discuss the issues of the day.

In his own recent substack post Duncan noted that an ex-Chief Economist of the Bank of England recently stated that ‘economists have no general theory of inflation’. When you think about it, that’s quite a statement.

The UK budget revealed another shape-shift for the Tory party. A Chancellor who believes borrowing is ‘immoral’ nevertheless wants to spend a lot of borrowed money. And is raising taxes.
