@PatriciaNPino Zack needs to explain that gilts are a privilege not an economic imperative or a fundamental human right. Say he’s prepared to take the privilege away (or return to tap system) if bond holders abuse it, and that he will not be intimidated because he understands that the purpose…

Only an idiot or knave would claim so.

“The Government can always create the money it needs to fund any project that it thinks is worthwhile. And the claim that it was cheaper for the private sector to fund these activities than for the State to do so was very obviously completely and utterly wrong.”
