The UK Public Debt: Is it a problem?

5 July 2012
Dr Steve Davies asks whether UK debt is too high, and what the government can do about the deficit.

Our mission is to improve understanding of the fundamental institutions of a free society by analysing and expounding the role of the markets in solving economic and social problems. Given the current economic challenges facing Britain and the wider global environment, it is more vital than ever that we promote the intellectual case for a free economy, low taxes, freedom in education, health and welfare and lower levels of regulation.
