The shape of the Green Party of England & Wales' economic policy is becoming clearer as a challenge to the Labour Govt. from the left; calibrated as it is to appeal to those people who might have previously voted Labour on economic grounds.

If the Labour party thinks they can gain more votes from stealing Reforms' policies than they will lose by the Greens stealing the idea of a Left party, they may get a rude awaiting when it come round to the election(s)!

Interestingly, while shares in the FTSE100 have been rising, UK based investors have been selling out at record rates to foreign investors who have gained from the price rises...

So, we might ask: why do UK investors not want to hold UK shares even when prices are rising?

Perhaps, unlike non-UK buyers, UK sellers of shares recognise how fragile the future of the UK economy looks, having actual experience of the UK's rubbish management & inadequate regulation?

Well, well, well, Peter Thiel in the last days/weeks (according to regulatory filings in the US) has sold his entire stake in Nvidia (a key stock linked to Artificial Intelligence) & has reduced his Tesla holdings... given Thiel is at the centre of many TechBro-ocracy, if he's bailed out of Nvidia in the last weeks, I think its safe to say the AI bubble is about to burst....

Time to batten down the hatches folk... and watch out for the 'too big to fail' crowd

Jasper Kenter (AberystwythU) offers ten principles for a new economics to replace growth focussed model(s) that shape & structure current economic policies.

Focussing on well-being & justice and spelling out the challenge of climate change & the need for democratisation of market relations, among other things, all are sensible ideas, which have been discussed among critical political economists for years... but the political class is just not interested!
