Unnerving.

The Bank of England has intervened to stop he collapse of pension funds.
Buying government debt in an effort to steady the economy.
An unheard of situation.
Truss and Kwarteng must be the only people who believe their actions have benefitted the UK.

Cleanyman too most probably.
Forgot about him.

The interesting thing about the BoE action from a Scottish independence perspective is that they're pulling a lever that we simply wouldn't have access to. Even if we issued a Scottish pound it wouldn't be strong enough for this type of action to make any odds. If we were part of the euro we'd have no control over interest rates or printing money. So we'd be forced to keep fiscal policy within a fairly narrow range, as defined by the EU, to avoid ending up like Greece.

Torys trashing the UK economy at the rate of a billion pounds, £1,000,000,000, per day.

For perspective a billion seconds is 31 years.
