Tory households do not understand this
Tories (the unionists in Scotland) think this is good economics.
Complete nonsense about govt fiscal rules, borrowing costs, and debt. UK gov is a currency issuer. It doesn’t borrow, taxes don’t fund gov spending, there’s no fiscal constraint, and it will never run out of £ or go bust.
