  • Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak clashed over their strategies to tackle inflation during the Conservative Party leadership debate on Channel 4 on Friday (15 July).
    While Ms Truss blamed the Bank of England, Mr Sunak told her: "Borrowing your way out of inflation isn’t a plan, it’s a fairytale.”
    The candidates' performance in the debate on Friday could influence the way Conservative MPs vote in the next leadership ballot on Monday (18 July).

    Sadly Rishi has it correct, pumping more money into an economy with inflation at 10% will only line the pockets of corporations.
    More money to spend + limited goods = price rises

      And a large amount of the inflation is caused by supply problems, and subsiding demand in a supply problem will cause inflation to rise even higher.

      That's why I said before the taxes decrease or increase must be targeted like Singapore or S Korea did it and made sure the end consumer would spend it to help grease the hurting economy. S Korea recently reduced taxes for landlords that must pass that on to renters! Rishi had no experience in building up a synchronized set of policies. Talk is rather cheap

      Well it's only a one minute clip. Going by what she said, they don't disagree on anything. Even her body language is in agreement with him at first. In terms of econ theory, they're both neolibs that beleive in monetarism, so I'm not sure if they have any core differences. Then again I'm not sure if Truss had any core beliefs in anything to begin with.

      They can still put pressure on them. If the prime minister comes out and says the rates are to low and the MPC aren’t doing their job gathering public support, then you bet the MPC start thinking about raising the base rate. The MPC are supposed to target 2% or thereabouts. There is little evidence of them doing so during the current economic crisis.

    We are already in the big crash, Inflation is a catastrophe. This CPI report is a colossal failure. To bring the housing market to a halt, the FED will have to pull all the stops. The unfortunate issue is that other markets are being decimated. If you want to stay green, you have to rely on a lot of diversification. Currently up 14% and being careful. Still a better deal than leaving it in a savings or checking account yielding 0-1 percent interest.

      @Hi UK economy crisis did not happen in isolation. Almost every country in the world is affected by the C-19 pandemic which lasted for 2 years. More so UK because our economy is largely service-base and not commodity-base. Low revenue from an affected global service market could have easily contributed to inflation and increase interest rates. Even a small change in the interest rates could give big impact to public spending and made everyone even poorer. Therefore, the inflation was avoided by imposing tax rise (a TEMPORARY measure). Just like the tax rise, sometimes, one needs to take a short-course of high dos antibiotics to cure a severe infection for a full fledge recovery. We are on the road to economy recovery.

    Recession becomes a problem if your investment portfolio is badly damaged at the same time you are withdrawing funds to fund your life now or in retirement. Also problematic if it harms our kids or grandkids. not everything is as bad for everyone. some are smart, some are dumb and yea some are just unlucky. my dad left me an inheritance of around $1.5m. real estate and some other investments in the stock market have kept the money flowing , amassing around $120k every damn quarter, aside from my job as an engineer. not to be brash as i know everyone has their own different situations in life but it's also worth noting that a lot of people have poor money management skills and strategies

    In fiscal policy, tax rise could reduce spending and inflationary pressures; a method to control inflation. Tax cut is just a temporary solution which could drown an economy into inflation. On that premises, what Rishi Sunak did was to control the inflation, and avoided the rise in the INTEREST rate. Even a small change in interest rates can bring BIG impact to public's spending. Therefore, what Rishi did was a strategical wise move.

Delaying interest payments on the current deficit will only cause further fiscal pain years down the line. Inflation won't last too long hopefully. We all need to spend less and cut back to help balance the economy.
