Powerful report based on analysis undertaken by Indepednent Economics. @IndepEconomics @BennettInst
The findings strengthen the case for more public investment and control of essentials – a central pillar of Andy Burnham’s economic vision as he seeks to become Prime Minister. thetimes.com/business/compan…

Heatwaves and our kids - Sign the Petition! c.org/LythkNRPR4 via @UKChange
Our new OXREP paper is out. We argue that big shifts—clean energy, AI, biotech—don’t just reallocate resources; they create new ones. We call this “creation economics”: an economy shaped by feedbacks, tipping points and leaps. Models illustrate pathways & risk, not predict future
Finally, as always, it was a pleasure working with @DimitriZ @JFMercure and Frank Geels.
We need to talk about tax. My commentary on Reeves’s fiscal policy in today’s CityAM.

Important intervention by the Oxford Smith School to secure a rational, forward-looking and competitive investment, resilience and economic transition plan for the UK. It's a race we can't afford to lose. Proud to be a signatory.

15 minute interview w. Andrew Neil ‘Times at One’. He asked good questions, once we moved off his fixation with a narrow definition of green jobs. I got him to accept that we are not going back to fossil fuels! And a free tutorial on bond markets 19':20''

“the last 15 years have taught us that the UK cannot cut its way to growth”. @GRI_LSE @BennettInst
A group of the UK’s most distinguished economists have written to the Chancellor, warning her that new cuts to spending or investment at the Spring Statement would be a “profound mistake”:

New govt has taken on many recommends from our report 1 yr on, eg amending fiscal rules. But not others: it taxed business and saving, rather than consumption. We warned this wd crowd out private investment & undermine productivity growth.@GRI_LSE @BennettInst @IndepEconomics
Investment in the transition to a sustainable, inclusive and resilient economy will not only drive gains in productivity and growth, but also improve the UK’s public finances – say @DimitriZ Esin Serin, @lordstern1 @johnvanreenen @asvalero & @ret_ward

"Despite best efforts to boost UK investment, election pledges are holding the govt back."
@DimitriZ discusses the reasons why the Budget measures, despite good intentions, could never be expected to deliver Reeve’s long-awaited boost to UK growth.

In a 2-part blog, @DimitriZ explores why the Autumn Budget, despite good intentions, could never deliver @RachelReevesMP's expected UK growth boost and what the government can do to restore its plan for UK investment, productivity and growth.

A short letter in Today’s Financial Times. The impact of Trump's proposed tariffs on the US trade balance is not the primary concern, it’s what it will do to American exports, jobs and productivity. @BennettInst @GRI_LSE @IndepEconomics ft.com/content/401d9752-2135… via @ft
With the Budget out today, net zero may sound like an exotic side issue. In fact, it is core to fiscal & macroeconomic policy, requiring tough decisions on taxes, spending & debt to boost UK investment & productivity @BennettInst @GRI_LSE @IndepEconomics context.news/net-zero/opinio…
Rachel Reeves’s welcome strategy to boost UK growth got off to a stuttering start. If she doesn’t make some unpopular choices, slay manifesto taboos, & tackle UK over-consumption, her entire economic strategy to boost productivity could fail @BennettInst @GRI_LSE @IndepEconomics
If the UK is to avoid waking up to Farage as PM in four years’ time (yes it is possible in the Westminster FPTP system) then Labour really needs make a difference, and take heed of our letter in the FT today: ft.com/content/ac6dabc9-641b… @BennettInst @GRI_LSE
