Frances HaqueGUEST
But I do think that the bond market's will want to see something around spending and how they're going to, you know, tighten that.
Frances HaqueGUEST
Because at the end of the day, it's actually quite an interesting piece that Andy Haldane wrote.
Frances HaqueGUEST
I think it was in the FT.
Frances HaqueGUEST
It was around Keynesian economics and, you know, are we at the end of it? And, you know, and he talked about the fact that sometimes actually more government spending could actually lead to less growth for a variety of different reasons to do with, you know, whether...

Frances HaqueGUEST
Because if companies and households believe that you're just going to raise taxes in the next round, then rather than spending, they're going to be saving, things like that.
Steph McGovernHOST
Although I would question how do you make it into that group, and how are they gonna work all that out? And isn't that just one homogenous lump?
Robert PestonHOST
So years ago, a friend of this podcast, Andy Haldane, was at the Bank of England.
Steph McGovernHOST
Yeah.
Robert PestonHOST
Um, uh, now I think he's, can't remember if he's called president or chair of the Chambers of Commerce.
Steph McGovernHOST
Yeah
Robert PestonHOST
... could be in life sciences, could be in advanced manufacturing, but we just need more of them, um, outside of, of London.
Robert PestonHOST
Um, because, um, our friends at Phoenix Court, remember Saul Klein came on-
Steph McGovernHOST
Yeah
Daniel MahoneyHOST
This is obviously going to be a bit of a tightrope for John Healey, higher guilt yields, various spending pledges that need to be adhered to.
Daniel MahoneyHOST
And I was quite struck by Andy Haldane, the former chief economist of the Bank of England, who said there should be no tax rises and they should be clear about having no tax rises at the moment, which would presumably mean we need to see spending restraint.
Daniel MahoneyHOST
Is that really something the government's going to want to do?
James SprouleGUEST
Well, if you recall, last autumn what we had was Rachel Reeves, and she floated an enormous number of ideas that the Treasury was clearly considering, seeing which ones met market approval.
James SprouleGUEST
was effective at the time, and certainly in retrospect, clearly did not work as anticipated.
James SprouleGUEST
I think Healey's going to have to take a different stance, a different approach.
James SprouleGUEST
And whether he follows Andy Haldane, that is what I would think is an economically sensible approach.
James SprouleGUEST
But politically, that could be very difficult to sell to labor-backed ventures.
Christian MayGUEST
So that's quite a bold call.
Christian MayGUEST
not least because it's coming from the body whose president is your friend and mine, Mr Andy Haldane, who was at one time told to be advising Andy Burnham.
Christian MayGUEST
We understand he's not doing that in any official capacity, but he's certainly using the British Chambers of Commerce to make a very clear case.
Nick FerrariHOST
All right, let's move to other matters.
Wilfred FrostHOST
What's so interesting about this is another high profile.
Wilfred FrostHOST
We had one yesterday on the show with Andy Haldane, and then yesterday afternoon from Lord O'Neill, Jim O'Neill, really clear, almost implicit criticisms of what they're expecting Andy Burnham to do.
Wilfred FrostHOST
And they're both saying, and these are two close advisors of him historically, basically the gist of what they're saying is you can't afford to put up taxes.
Wilfred FrostHOST
The economy, business, individuals has got too much weight on their shoulders already.
Tim ShipmanGUEST
the lips of someone then.
James HealeHOST
But it's true, isn't it? There's a sort of lack of big hitters, isn't there? We were saying on last yesterday's podcast, no Andy Haldane, no Jim O'Neill.
Michael SimmonsGUEST
Yeah.
James HealeHOST
Sorry, go on.
George ParkerHOST
Andy Burnham has spent the summer touring Britain listening to voters and promising to fix the everyday problems they raise.
George ParkerHOST
But listening is the easy bit.
George ParkerHOST
Now come the hard choices.
Stephen BushPANELIST
Hi, George.
George ParkerHOST
So Jim, it seems to me the Prime Minister's been quite careful at picking issues which resonate with voters but don't cost very much money.
George ParkerHOST
That's kind of the sweet spot for Andy Burnham, isn't it?
Jim PickardPANELIST
Yeah, if you, if you...
Jim PickardPANELIST
I mean, this is still the honeymoon period for the Prime Minister.
Nick FerrariHOST
We'll wait for that figure to drop.
Nick FerrariHOST
Now, someone that I know I'm a fan of, and I think City AM is a fan of, is, uh, Andy Haldane, the former Bank of England chief economist.
Nick FerrariHOST
He was, of course, the man who spotted the rising tide of inflation some years ago and tried to bring about an end of quant-- or urge an end to quantitative easing.
Nick FerrariHOST
He's also been giving us some suggestions about the upcoming budget.
