I was one of 113 academics to sign a letter criticising the Conservative Government for its continued ideological pursuit of austerity. The letter was published on November 20th 2017 and was entitled, 'The Chancellor Must End Austerity Now - It is Punishing an Entire Generation'.

I was one of what the Guardian described in its front-page report on June 13th 2015 as "77 of the best-known academic economists" to sign a letter criticising UK Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne's plans to enshrine in law permanent budget surpluses. The letter accuses Osborne of ignoring "basic economics".
