Jesus lads, 'tis looking like BREXIT!

Even those commentators that are positively disposed to them are sounding alarms.

This is the F.F. budget from 1977 for 2022 turning the U.K. into Argentina potentially.

Cut taxes and regulation etc and hope for growth.

It is a massive gamble economically and politically a disaster for the Tories.

Ultimately it is just more cash for their backers and supporters and to hell with the so called "Red wall" areas who can now get fracking and earthquakes.

Pound just dropped below $1.10.
FTSE100 2.3% down.

That's some reaction to a budget announcement.

Summers: “It would not surprise me if the pound eventually gets below a dollar, if the current path is maintained…This is simply not a moment for the kind of naïve, wishful thinking, supply-side economics that is being pursued in Britain.”
