A high-risk gamble for these Tories, but a safer one for their project
The Budget and subsequent measures are intended to be transformational; a major step on the road to thoroughly ‘Americanising’ the British economy with low taxes, low wages, privatisation, deregulation and union-busting that are already designed to boost the profit rate.
Class war disguised as national renewal – Truss and Kwarteng to unleash turbocharged Thatcherite economics
An emergency budget is due on September 23. Liz Truss’ government will borrow £150bn to give to the already engorged energy companies. Kwarteng, the Chancellor, will further redistribute wealth to the rich, whilst speaking about the importance of growth with no policies to achieve it. The people pick up the tab.
