Summary

In late 2022, Liz Truss took Britain into economic la-la land and comprehensively tanked the economy. The result? Higher mortgages and rents, runaway inflation, debt at an eye-watering £2.7 trillion and a sluggish economy falling behind our (ex-)European partners. As Paul Wallace argues in this incisive and accessible book, this was the low point of a once supercharged economy still hungover from the 2008 crash. Tackling the ten most important issues the economy is facing - including Brexit, debt, the City, immigration, manufacturing, levelling up and public services - Wallace explains, in clear, jargon-free prose, what the problems are, and how to solve them. Fully updated to cover Labour Chancellor Rachel Reeves's current challenges, he ends with a ten-point plan to get our economy back on track.
