I don't see how what I said means that I'm looking backwards.  I merely explained why I feel fortunate and so sorry for young people today.

Completely agree that the 'Tories govern to enrich their cabal rather than for the good of the country as a whole.

I wish there was a party which followed the Nordic economic model.

Have you looked at @b6548392's recent suggestions? https://www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2023/09/11/the-taxing-wealth-report-2024-and-the-reform-of-tax-administration/

Richard Murphy advised #Corbyn & advocated #MMT, the Modern Monetary Theory. All credibility he had to comment on realistic high level fiscal/economic policy fizzled away with #Labour's #GE2024 fortunes

I followed him on #Xitter & I remember his advocacy of MMT. HOWEVER, 3 preeminent economists joined the discussion & pointed out the failings & pitfalls of MMT

What did Richard do? He scarpered! 😳 No defence of his doctrine, he just legged it without response 🏃
