So can nobody explain to an ignorant African how getting into debt by reducing taxes on the very rich will result in economic growth for the UK?

There is no explanation. Just faith and greed.

Truss attacks the dollar hegemony. Beware contagion. Beware a woman scorned. Only eight month players can see where this snooker game is going.

Because what you call 'the very rich' are actually 'the wealth creators'. If wealth creators pay less tax then that gives them more cash to invest in the real economy, which is good for everyone.

Those luxury yachts don't build themselves, right? And have you seen the fees those off-shore accountants charge? Every little helps.

How do you attack the world's reserve currency? Where do you think all that capital flight out of sterling is actually going? Into the Yuan?

Everyone will be defaulting on their currencies before long.

And the dollar?

Why do you think the currency of the nation that spends as much as the rest of the world combined on it's military is considered such a safe bet?

problem of course is that whatever wealth they create only lines their own pockets, the tinke down system has been shown long ago to be a piss poor sham.

There'll be a afterlife. New currencies. Nothing like the world you know today. Don't imagine you think outside the box you don't even realise you are so within, it ain't gonna happen not just yet.

We in Africa eat roots and live in mud huts, why should we care?

It is interesting that England is going for Voodoo economics.

Only because your always fighting amongst yourselves - could have highways everywhere if you wanted...concrete over the savannah, who needs out of control grass everywhere, and solar electricity from the sahara...eat all the crocodiles and lions and snakes and things, or put them in zoos...enough forest to rival Ikea...with sustainable logging. Africa could make Dubai or Shanghai or New York even seem a dump in twenty years.

Said Peter...what you're requesting just isn't my bag
Said Daemon, who's sorry too, but y'see we didn't have no choice
And our hands they are many and we'd be of one voice
We've come all the way from Wigan to get up and state
Our case for survival before it's too late

Turn stone to bread, said Daemon Duncetan
Turn stone to bread right away...
