You need to read PE on charter cities and feeports - worrying laws unto themselves (sovereignty brexit boys and girls?) and already even in the early stages as they are, corruption and graft already in evidence.I thought -- and I'm completely out of my depth here really -- but I thought that it wasn't tax cuts alone which they think will produce 2.5% sustainable growth p.a., but tax cuts in combination with charter cities, because the cities will make it attractive to invest and hence to unleash productivity. That's why I was a bit thrown by something Kwertang said in the budget speech, that they are in "early stages" of creating them. If the charter cities are pie in the sky, it may be serious.
You got paid in sterling? Idiot!Ha, sadly no more!
I remember when it was $4.80 to the pound! In the 1960's.

Holy smoke, I had absolutely no idea it was ever at these levels! A bit like those who loaded up on debt over the past decade had no idea about 15% IR’s.
I had a mortgage back in 1985-92 interest rate was 18.4% less MIRAS so about 14.5% the mortgage was £24,000 I paid £187 a month.
Well, if youve been keeping up with PE, you'll no doubt realise they'll do zero for the economy, but might make substantial contributions to the tory crime family.Yes, I've seen it and I'm sure that terrible things can go on in them. However, my point was about their strategy for growth and how charter cities is the key idea really. But, as I said, "we're in early talks" about them sounds like they're a long way off.
My interpretation of today is that the goal is Singapore upon Thames.

That may be the goal. But the execution will more likely resemble Sri Lanka on Thames.
