#andyburnham He becomes PM today. He's already said 40 years of neolibralism has failed the UK.
How about following #Keynes the economist who helped create & fund the NHS etc after the war.
How about Burnham giving a speech stating that money is created by the BoE & tax does not fund spending.
The bank is NOT independent. Brown put in a clause allowing government to take control.
That would shock the media when the truth comes out.
We live in hope.
