The NS has published a short piece this week: “Economists simply would not accept that their model could fail“. An introductory sentence is not mine: “Who would have predicted..that prudent Gordon Brown (would) breach the EU cap on government spending?” Am writing to the NS to ask for a correction to be published.
Uhh, don’t worry about chasing a correction, Ann Pettifor. Just blog it yourself in the comments section there anyway. NS has
become rather slack these days anyway…..
Thanks for that tip, Douglas. Ann
Yes – a disasterous error to describe the policies of Mr.Brown as “prudent”. Ludicrous, utterly.
