Customer Reviews
Naive
The real problem is that the Bank and the Treasury do not want to hire experts to advise them - they continually hire people who don’t have the relevant experience in the markets so when the Chancellor wants to understand the implications of decisions no one can give the relevant answers
Good concept, Steph needs a different co host
Pestons style makes it too hard a listen and talks too much. Have listened to some of the Liz Truss series but won’t again until they change the line-up, particularly with maybe a financial/economic expert as well as a journalist rather than two journos
Excellent
Fascinating look at the fall of Truss and the way the Bank of England got away with it
