OUR PRIORITY POLICY AREAS
Strategic research and targeted advocacy to transform Britain's economic landscape through innovative policy frameworks
THE JOB GUARANTEE
Our UK-focused proposal is in advanced draft form. It demonstrates how MMT can achieve full employment and price stability.
- Guarantee a paid public option at £15 per hour, centrally funded and locally delivered, open to anyone willing and able to work, with additional, non-displacing roles that serve community, care and climate needs
- Operate as a counter-inflation automatic stabiliser by converting unemployment into a buffer of paid employment, using the Job Guarantee wage as a nominal anchor with annual formula updates and a triennial review
- Deliver strong net fiscal and social returns through lower benefit spend, higher tax and NI receipts, and health savings, with phased rollout, local project pipelines, and independent evaluation before national scale
ZERO INTEREST RATE POLICY (ZIRP)
A permanent 0% Central Bank Interest rate, with fiscal policy doing the steering
- Set Bank Rate at 0 percent, replace routine gilt issuance with reserves, cut interest costs and simplify debt management
- Manage demand through automatic stabilisers and targeted fiscal measures, use prudential tools to guide credit and protect financial stability
- Offer safe saving via NS&I and regulated products, publish a gilt market transition plan with clear timelines, risk controls, and reporting
- We are currently working on a draft for this policy
