Why is Government borrowing from the BoE, 'not debt in any real sense'? Isn't this exactly the mindset from 1920s Germany with hyper-inflation the result of this economic experiment? Genuinely interested in your views on this as I decide when my democratic vote goes?

Truss showed that if markets don't think your good for your debt then the bond markets wobble and enormous pension funds find themselves in tricky positions to ensure their investments create necessary returns leaving ordinary working folk in danger of not getting their public or private pension?

Let's be clear you said that borrowing more to fund capital investment is ok and seemed comfortable with a much higher debt to GDP ratio like Japan. Can you go into more detail about the actually numbers behind the spending multiplier you speak about so these numbers can be properly scrutinised?

Thanks Zack. Your politics is certainly proving popular right now. How about you set out a little.more details on how you will unlock money in assets very rich people hold. You said this was the 'real problem' in your BBC interview on Saturday? Will this be a Reeves Mansion Tax ++ or something else?

Does it matter? It's a talking house which secures little or no action from the big players. More carbon added to the atmosphere over the years from all the delegates and staff flying to different parts of the world for the event than it probably saved through the resolutions.

They will have had to work incredibly hard to secure this. Perhaps more so than a school that gets to the soon to be required 90% pass but serves the most affluent families. Line in the sand metrics can be too blunt! Let's be more nuanced with accountability please!

Jamie Dimon's correction started?

IMO, any feedback to a pupil simply should aim to achieve at least one of these - clarification, motivation or sophistication. I think you are spot on, even if your feedback achieve this but the recipient does nothing with it (potentially repeatedly) at the time then it is wasted. Great thread.

Sorry, balance being strategic vs. operational?
