I don't normally do interviews...

... but as the transcript over at Totalpolitics would suggest, I do normal interviews.

Reasonable summary of your beliefs, as I understand them.

One can but hope that the fixation on 'cow attacks' does not 'overtax' your views of 'economics'? I jest, I jest.

Congrats on the interview!

WFW, at least they didn't think I was talking bull.

Obo, my pleasure.

Your second claim to fame (in addition to being the second best accountant in the world after some chap in Hong Kong). Splendid.

What is that you don't like about Margaret Thatcher? I assume "right to buy" is part of it.

TFB, my main claim to fame/infamy is my Bow Group report on tax simplification.

R, I didn't rehearse it. She asked me who my favourite was and I said JM because he was the least Home-Owner-Ist PM in living memory. She followed up with who my least favourite was, so I named the most Home-Owner-Ist/corporatist PM just for contrast.

And yes I am aware that in absolute terms Blair/Brown were worse, but they were just copying her. maybe iDave will be even more Home-Owner-Ist than all the others put together? It certainly looks that way.
