Death to the Deficit

Tim Mason

12th November 2009

Following last week’s excellent “Analysis” programme on Economics comes another useful programme. This week, Frances Cairncross presented a programme on the government deficit and argued that tax rises won’t be enough; cuts in public spending across the board will be needed. The programme is repeated on Sunday at 9.30 pm and the podcast and accompanying article can be downloaded here.

Next Monday should also be useful: what would happen if we were to leave the EU? Radio 4 at 8.30 pm.
