Of course it isn’t some else’s fault and that’s a ridiculous thing to say, Deerey. What part of “shambles” don’t you understand? Or maybe you didn’t read my comment properly?
And I’m not blaming anyone but Truss and the Tories, Heath, so that’s also a load of cobblers. The Government’s screwed up massively, as have the Tory MPs. I’ve made that very clear.
None of that alters the basic facts. The markets have targeted the UK even though our economy’s in better shape than many others, including the eurozone. Having screwed the mini-budget, which as I’ve said on a number of occasions was appallingly handled, Truss should still have stuck to her guns, reminded the markets in no uncertain terms that the basic plan would greatly increase the likelihood of significant growth and her MPs should have rallied behind her.
Finally, Siderite, I can assure you that what’s happening now is nothing like as bad as the seventies when both the Tories under Heath and then Labour under Wilson and Callaghan presided over an even bigger shambles. That isn’t opinion but fact; and if you don’t believe me, you need to check your facts.
