Michael,

I’ve missed you! Where have you been for the last month? My guess is holiday – was it somewhere nice?

So glad that you’re back, I can get my daily economics fix again. Marvellous.

Comment on Globalisation: How can the UK compete? by Philip Wootton

Excellent article on UK’s strengths. What should the UK government do to reinforce these strengths? Their major infrastructure project is to build a high speed railway line to Birmingham opening in 2026! This despite the internet and mobile communications making work on the train productive and video conferencing reducing the need for business travel. Would investment in a fibre optic network, for instance, yield more benefit for more people more quickly?

Comment on Global imbalances close by Philip Wootton

I fear, for once, your facts are wrong. The whole order for Airbus Planes is for the A320. 150 of one version and 30 of the other. No 380s I’m afraid.
Also not sure about the relevance of your comparison with the Chinese surplus either. You are comparing one month’s surplus with an order which will be supplied over some years. But keep up the good work!
