À propos de la deuxième de couverture

In late 2022, Liz Truss took Britain into economic la-la land and comprehensively tanked the economy. The result? Higher mortgages and rents, runaway inflation, debt at an eye-watering £2.7 trillion and a sluggish economy rapidly falling behind our (ex-)European partners. As Paul Wallace argues in this incisive and accessible book, this was the low point of a once supercharged economy still hungover from the 2008 crash.

Tacking the ten most important issues the economy is facing - including Brexit, debt, the City, immigration, manufacturing, levelling up and public services - Wallace explains in clear, jargon-free prose what the problems are, and how to solve them. He ends with a ten-point plan to get our economy back on track.

Part-primer, part passionate argument, Tanked is the perfect book for anyone who wants to understand how Britain devalued itself.
