I've reached an inflection point.

I no longer believe Britain's political system can fix itself. This isn't about left vs right, Labour vs Conservative, or the next election. It's about unconstrained power, broken incentives and a system that rewards failure while hollowing out the next generation.

In this PMQs episode, I explain why I'm withdrawing my consent from the British state and why so many young people have already done the same.
This isn't apathy.

It's a vote of no confidence.

In this episode:
– Why politicians care about only one thing: staying in power
– How unconstrained government creates inevitable failure
– The collapse of trust in institutions
– Why young people feel betrayed by the system
– Nick Fuentes, Piers Morgan & generational revolt
– Why Reform and the Greens are the same phenomenon
– The moral failure of intergenerational debt
– Why Britain needs limits on power, not new parties

Mike Green is a macro strategist known for his work on market structure, benchmark distortions, passive flows and systemic fragility.

A single benchmark shaped American markets and policy for decades and economist Mike Green believes it distorted risk, inflated asset prices, weakened the middle class and misled policymakers about the true state of the economy. In this conversation, he breaks down how a flawed model became accepted as truth, how it quietly rewired incentives, and why he thinks the consequences are now impossible to ignore.

In this episode we discuss:
– What the "broken benchmark" actually is
– How flawed assumptions shaped U.S. economic policy
– Why markets mispriced risk for decades
– The rise of passive flows and distorted price signals
– How asset inflation hurt the middle class
– Why housing affordability collapsed
– Why policymakers didn't correct the model
– The structural consequences for future generations
– Whether America can fix the system without a crisis
– How the UK is importing the same benchmark problems

Modern economics is built on competing theories that often describe the world in very different ways. In this conversation, economist Steve Keen sets out his explanation for how money works, why he believes mainstream economic models fail, and why debt, banking and housing play a far greater role in economic crises than most policymakers acknowledge.

Keen's perspective challenges the assumptions of neoclassical, Keynesian and Austrian economists alike.

In this episode we discuss:
– How economics became political ideology
– Why neoclassical theory broke the West
– The Left vs Right illusion in economic policy
– What money really is (and how banks actually create it)
– Why inflation is misunderstood by almost everyone
– How private debt fuels instability and inequality
– Housing, mortgages & the destruction of the middle class
– Why equilibrium economics is fantasy
– What a sane, reality-based economic model looks like
– How young people can survive a debt-driven system

Economics didn't fail by accident — it failed because ideology replaced reality.

Steve Keen is one of the world's leading heterodox economists, known for his critiques of mainstream theory and his work on private debt, banking, financial instability and the 2008 crisis, which he warned about years in advance.

Inflation isn't an economic metric — it's a political tactic. When governments lie about inflation, they're not miscalculating; they're stealing from you. Economist Karl-Friedrich Israel explains how inflation quietly enriches asset holders, punishes workers and pushes Europe into a slow, silent decline.

If your living standards are falling while politicians insist everything is fine, this conversation will make sense of it. If you still believe governments can print prosperity without consequences, you won't enjoy what follows.

In this episode we discuss:
– How inflation secretly taxes the poor
– Why CPI hides the real cost of living
– Europe's long, slow economic decay
– The rise of modern socialism
– Cronyism vs capitalism
– Collective corruption of elites
– Why asset inflation fuels inequality
– The Argentina warning
– Whether Bitcoin can fix the money
– AI, automation & the coming labour shock

Britain is being lied to — and people are finally waking up.

Karl-Friedrich Israel is a German economist specialising in monetary policy, inflation and inequality. His work reveals the economic mechanisms accelerating Europe's decline.

Labour's second budget is here and it's another full-blown tax raid. They've hit workers again, squeezed savers again, blown up the welfare bill again and still delivered nothing for business, growth or the people who actually drive the economy.

If you earn, save, build or invest, Labour just came back for round two: punishing work, killing incentives and pushing the UK deeper into decline.
