Rachel from Accounts has tied herself in knots with her pre-election promises, now making a little increase in 'investment', but not enough .

The UK is paying a risk premium compared to highly indebted eurozone countries in part because of that fiasco: it currently has to pay investors 4.92% to hold its 10-year bonds compared with 3.72% for France, 3.83% for Italy and 3.05% for Germany. The French too have to be wary of the bond market vigilantes since Macron’s revolving-door prime ministers have struggled for two years to pass a budget in a hung parliament without a majority.

The UK also chose to stay out of a planned Defence, Security and Resilience Bank, leaving Canada and Luxembourg to take the lead in creating an institution that could help finance major defence projects, and do so on top of national defence spending. If the British government dare not borrow alone, and turns its back on all forms of collective financing, that leaves unpopular cuts to other infrastructure projects or welfare spending. The alternative is to accept missing the Nato target and accepting that European security will be weaker for it.

It’s not too late for a bold collective borrowing effort to meet Europe’s urgent defence needs. John Healey’s brave sacrifice must not be in vain.

Weird how the police are so good at arresting people, when they're opposing genocide.
