About Think Tank


Bill Turnbull presents `Think Tank', a quiz show featuring a regular cast of contributors who create the game content for the contestants.

Rishi Sunak , from its level of 10. 7% in The Last three months of 2022.

Inflation was 4. 6% in October, which means The Pledge is likely to be met unless there is a considerable increase before The End of the year.

However, Paul Johnson , director of the IFS, an influential economics Think Tank , has said:

The Bank of England has been raising interest rates to try to.

An example Mr Sunak gave of his difficult decisions to control Inflation was not giving big pay rises to striking public sector workers.

The IFS said the inflationary danger from public sector pay deals is that if they are much higher than in the Private Sector , those workers will also ask for bigger pay rises. " we're clearly not there".

'Borrowing £28bn a year as the Labour Party want to will make debt go up'

Mr Sunak was talking about.

In September 2021, Labour said it would deliver an additional £28bn of capital investment each year to support the UK's transition to net zero.

However, in June, Shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves said.

The figure Now - Making It £20bn of additional investment.

Ms Reeves has pledged to reduce national debt as a share of the economy, which is similar to.

The current level of the government's debt is high by historical standards at just under 100% of the size of the economy.
