Follow the Money

 by Paul Johnson

A 2023 take on the British economy, looking at where the money comes from and how it is distributed. Along the way he comments on the good and the bad of the British tax system and the failings and strengths of the various spending departments.

You may not agree with all of his analysis but it does offer food for thought. It is fairly well balanced in its swipes at politicians from all sides but it is written by somebody who rising from modest roots, has embraced the establishment of which he is now a part. As such he comes across as a bit arrogant in places but I still found it an enjoyable and stimulating read 8/10
