About this episode

The episode discusses economic factors affecting inflation and youth unemployment in the UK amidst the credit crunch and pandemic.

This is the latest in my series of podcasts explaining how economics works in the credit crunch and now virus pandemic era. This week I give my thoughts on . Morris May With broad money growing again in the EU, (+0.2%) and expected ECN rate rise this month, what growth in April's/ annual M4 figure next week will prompt the BoE MPC to react in a similar manner? Morris May With the £ weakening by over 1% v $ in May (particularly for effect on cost of fossil fuel imports) how much upwards pressure does this exert on UK inflation. Keith Cowan What economic interventions would you make to address the youth unemployment crisis in the UK. Truffle Hunter With brent dropping back to $90 this morning how does this drift lower start to impact inflation? Don't panic jonesy Wholesale elec price is still dropping dramatically. When do we get to see this reflected in our bills?
