The Bank of England ought to reconsider if they really need to raise rates. See below by Archie Mitchell in The Independent Ed Conway National Institute of Economic and Social Research #inflation #interestrates Sunak warned of ‘serious shock’ for homeowners as Bank to raise interest rates independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

This is not great Robert Peston - there was no need to increase rates yet further. It will have little effect, if any, on inflation - on the contrary, it may exacerbate demand for wage increases. But it will hurt people on low income and with mortgages. Jeremy Hunt

Sorry I missed this National Institute of Economic and Social Research - I have read the blurb etc - this looks like a really interesting and insightful book on the big themes, burning and relevant right now across the world. Congratulations Ed Conway

Really interesting take - and actually fundamental- when you focus on ‘hope’ robert shrimsley Hope is key. Atm - millions don’t have it. Need a grand, radical and credible vision for the future. I can’t see anyone painting it yet. Pippa Crerar Sophy Ridge National Institute of Economic and Social Research

Very interesting …and spot on, Balaji India is a country on the move - ‘going places’. Loads of energy & excitement. But still hugely challenging the tasks ahead, especially to double GDP by 2030 - which it ought to. Fareed Zakaria #India #GDP #technology #FDI

Andy Haldane is spot on, Robert Peston The Director of National Institute of Economic and Social Research , Jagjit S. Chadha wrote an open letter to the Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey, along similar lines. Not to raise rates further requires clear communication, and strong & credible leadership.

Well said Vicky Foxcroft 💙 - the ‘Public Health’ approach requires a *ten year* funding commitment. At moment it’s short term, and small compared to the socio-economic costs, which run into the billions, as we show in our 2020 Final Report. Keir Irwin-Rogers Once upon a time ⚖️

Fascinating this is. Great visualisation and powerful way to learn. Mind boggling this data is…. Thanks Max Roser - btw, you and your team at Our World in Data have been doing superb work especially since the start of the pandemic. Keep going. Good luck.

Spot on Robert Greene - it’s a core principle in game theory: Look ahead (into the future) and then (mentally) work backwards to determine one’s optimal strategy (going forward). “Backwards induction” principle. Chess and poker players use it Liv Boeree #gametheory

Well said Axel van Trotsenburg - This is an excellent move by the World Bank Data on these variables is needed. This should be helpful to better understand how things are progressing. #poverty #development #economicgrowth #inequality

Good observations Liv Boeree ….. ….Just a thought …could this, in part, not be fundamental human nature … ….to want change in leadership…. ….Isn’t this true in others areas of life and through human history, to some extent? But your points remain, nonetheless.
