    Why Zack Polanski's Green Party Would Crash the Economy and Bankrupt Britain

    City AM's Editor in Chief reacts to the Green Party's comments on his column.  In his recent leader column Christian wrote "Polanski’s simplistic economic analysis makes for a simple wish list, including taxing the oil and gas companies out of existence; nationalising utilities; slapping wealth taxes on the rich; introducing rent controls; and spending money like a drunken sailor."  Find out what the Greens had to say in response.  Week in Business is also available in video format here.

    After years of scrutiny and regulatory wrangling, Revolut has finally secured its UK banking licence. On one level, it’s just another regulatory milestone on a long and interesting journey.  On another, it marks the moment when an insurgent fintech disruptor becomes something much bigger: a fully-fledged bank in its home market. City AM Editor-in-Chief Christian May has all the analysis in this instalment of Week in Business.  Week in Business is also available in video format here.

    Spotlight turns on Reeves – and the state of our economy

    We haven’t heard much from Rachel Reeves so far this year – probably a deliberate strategy – but is the Chancellor set to make waves next week at the Spring Statement? My fear is that a low-key Spring Statement followed by political turmoil in the Labour party – basically a given with local elections just a few months away – will mean we face at best another year of managed decline or, at worst, a harsh leftward turn from a government that has already demonstrated that it doesn’t have a clue how to grow the economy.  Reeves has been keeping a low profile, but the spotlight is about to turn on her.
