Implying that anyone is to blame for this. Our government is leading us as competently as they can, this crash was unavoidable when the voting public committed national suicide by voting to leave the EU.

The BoE has just been far too timid and tried to stick to business as usual when they should have increased rates more aggressively at an earlier stage. Immediately after the fed raised rates 0.75 points to 3.25%, and in the full knowledge that the government was about to announce a big old splurge of tax cuts and borrowing, they opted for a flimsy 0.5 point increase up to a 2.25% rate. The markets had already priced in 0.75 points, it was a fucking retarded move and set the ball rolling on this whole shitshow. If they'd done something aggressive like stick in a full 1 point rise a week ago then the pound would probably have been strengthening (at least compared to most currencies) when Kwarteng made his statement, and the markets wouldn't really have blinked. Now they're probably going to have to jack them up by at least that much, and instead of it looking like they're on top of things, it just looks like they're in a blind panic. >>51642458 is right, Bailey is the biggest moron involved in this situation.
