Where people keep getting it wrong, is thinking Labour want to improve Britain. They don't, they are Fabian Marxists, working knowingly or unknowingly for China. They want to destroy Britain, so they can 'rule over the ashes'.
That is patent bollocks. If you really believe that, you have no hope of understanding what is really going on and why all politicians struggle to govern.
Liam, some of the answers to the housing crisis ( especially in expensive rural areas) are all there in your book "Home Truths". Enabling communities to self- fund affordable housing through Land Value Capture under the umbrella of democratic Community Land Trusts, could provide huge nation-wide housing supply growth where it is needed. To the benefit of the local people both young and old in a sustainable community. Get the bureaucrats out of the way.
The UK's public finances are in a pitiful state. One recent example being rumoured treasury demands that departments shave 1% of budgets by cutting capex. Capital investment is money spent today to give better living standards tomorrow. ( Bat tunnels don't count btw)
However I can't quite see why Britain would ever need an IMF bailout. Public debt is nearly all in sterling and in extremis a government can instruct the central bank to lend it fresh money. That's been done indirectly via Quantative Easing every since the great financial crash. There are nasty medium term consequences but a government running out of sterling to pay its bills is not one.
In my opinion there could be future IMF involvement following a bond market crisis. Not our of necessity, but more for poltical cover for a beleaguered Chancellor. As in " I really don't want to cut this welfare programme but the IMF insisted".

Glad you revealed yourself as an obvious fellow traveller.
Not at all. I don't vote Labour and think they are failing. But I can't abide stupid conspiracy theories.
Blinded by decades of clear evidence?

Thanks Liam, I wish they’d start listening to you, it is all so sensible.
If only you WERE chancellor Liam! They haven’t got a clue what they’re doing🤦♀️
