How Can We Restore Freedom and Sound Money in the US and the UK? Some Ideas
The purpose of this essay is not to convince the reader of the necessity for change. It is to present some commonsense policy changes to attempt to mitigate the economic harm that has been done to Western economies, especially to the United States and the United Kingdom, since the end of World War II. Please watch Godfrey Bloom and Alasdair Macleod’s recent interview with Sonia Poulton.
The video describes the current financial and reputational weaknesses of the West. For a more in-depth analysis of the financial threat to the West, please read any of Alasdair Macleod’s weekly essays from the past few months.
In the Poulton interview, Macleod ably describes the financial implications of the West’s deindustrialization policies and currency debasement. Bloom describes the reputational damage stemming from the West’s “sanctions” against Russia plus the consequences of deindustrialization due to the foolish pursuit of a Green New Deal.

The designation, under a federal law designed to protect military systems from foreign sabotage, functions as a blacklist, preventing the company from doing business with the federal government and its contractors.
If the block is granted, the company would be able to continue...

UK Gilt Yields Near 30-Year Highs As Political/Geopolitical Fears Spark Trussian Chaos
UK Gilt Yields Near 30-Year Highs As Political/Geopolitical Fears Spark Trussian Chaos
Anyone has been in the bond markets for more than a minute remembers the fall of 2022 when UK PM Liz Truss was unceremoniously dumped by her own party after serving 45 days in office as the Gilts market collapsed at unprecedented speed amid economic chaos triggered by her 'mini-budget' (and multiple ministerial resignations).
The reason we reminisce is that this morning - after a long-weekend closed - UK Gilt yields are soaring once again... to their highest level...
