Not got anything helpful to add but was doing quantative chemistry with similar y10 group last period Friday and managed to make them laugh by saying I did understand that chemistry with extra maths wouldn't be their first choice!

We have our own sovereign currency and the government can literally print money. See: Quantative Easing. The government can literally pay for anything it wants. It choose to bailout the banks in 2008. Did that money come from taxation or bills? No. The government printed it

2/3 RJM's claims ↑: 1) A 'black hole' cannot exist. 2) If it did, you could do 6 things to fill the £22bn 'black hole: 3) BoE offers an 'overdraft' to UKG. 4) UKG issues a new bond and buys it back. 5) 4 above, but no buy-back. 6) UKG tells BoE to stop 'quantative tightening'...2/3 RJM's claims ↑: 1) A 'black hole' cannot exist. 2) If it did, you could do 6 things to fill the £22bn 'black hole: 3) BoE offers an 'overdraft' to UKG. 4) UKG issues a new bond and buys it back. 5) 4 above, but no buy-back. 6) UKG tells BoE to stop 'quantative tightening'...

Maybe Interesting to track over time? Both SNP/LAB and SNP/Lab/con breakdowns. Either way, good quantative evidence on "Green voters are not SNP voters".

I think the utility is there for generic analysis of large data sets both qualitative and quantative

if the Government gave the money that it is creating via Quantative Easing to people then they would either [1] pay off debt - in which case the banks would end up with it, or [2] buy things - in which case the supplier also does one of these two things.

oh we're playing that game, quantative and qualitative are both inputs and we're running 8 A/B tests rn

I'm not sure how solid the economic merit of Reform's plans to stop paying interest on QE here, but since quantative easing was not like a bloke in the street printing a twenty quid note on his Epson inkjet, I'm not expecting to discover it is that well-founded

The cost of this measure is estimated at £40bn pa (depending on employment numbers) which will be mainly funded by ending the Bank of England’s current voluntary payment of base rate interest on the printed money reserves, known as quantitative easing (QE) reserves. This transfers some £30-40bn per year of interest payments (at current interest rates) to big banks from taxpayers and is neither necessary nor contractual. Other central banks are not paying this, nor should the Bank of England.

To understand this concept, imagine printing a £20 note on your home printer and giving it to your neighbour who is having a tough time. Having done him a major favour, why would you pay him interest every year on the money you gave him? This is what QE did: saved the nation from going bust in 2008 and 2020 – so the Bank of England should not pay ongoing interest on the money reserves that it printed.
