    And so it starts. British citizens without an EU passport shut out by their own government from jobs

  3. So if FFR is dead because no market, and Libor is replaced with SOFR, what does this imply for monetary policy transmission in future? And how can licensed banks remain distinct from other market participants? ( might you have a view on this?)

    Chris Grey thinks my piece is interesting, so you're all obliged to read it. I'm sorry, I don't make the rules.

    Boris says that the UK would be happy with a trade deal with the EU like Australia's. Australia doesn't have a trade deal with the EU. Forex market unimpressed. via

  8. I think this "Australia deal" should be called the "WTF arrangement"

  9. Marmalade making day. Off to obtain jam sugar and a few more jam jars (since some of mine seem to have disappeared). Then spend hours shredding orange peel.

    Boris Johnson says that we will not accept any diminution of our food standards "but we will be governed by science" - this is the phrase that US trade folks use when defending chlorinated chicken.

    When it comes to likely Brexit deal, we've gone from 'exact same benefits', to 'frictionless trade', to some friction, to now a choice btw Canada style deal OR what govt is calling Australia deal which is not a deal, but WTO arrangement with tariffs and the Irish protocol

    It doesn’t seem to occur to some of today’s young socialists that many older former socialists turned against it not because they “sold out” but because they realized they’d been sold a bill of goods. Knowing some history would help.

  15. It seems that Eton does not teach history.

  16. During the American civil war, the mills in the North of England were so disrupted by the loss of cotton imports from the US that there was famine in Lancashire. That was cotton produced by slaves.

  17. Dear , Britain did not "lead the world" on the abolition of slavery. It abolished the slave trade, yes, but it continued to import the products of slavery for a long time afterwards.

  18. It's also a myth that the gold standard of that time was self-balancing. It was actively managed by European central banks, particularly the Bank of England. The US didn't have a central bank, but it actively used tariffs to control trade - and hence gold - flows.

  19. The US maintained very high tariff barriers at that time to protect its agricultural and nascent manufacturing industries from the UK, whose dominance of global trade and control of exchange rates at that time gave it an unfair advantage.

  20. The UK did maintain low tariffs in the second half of the 19th century, but it was at the time the dominant imperial power so could afford to do so. It was the global price maker, just as the US is today. The UK of today is not remotely comparable.

  21. Global tariffs did fall substantially in the early 20th century, but that was driven by the US, not the UK.
