With Scotonomics, we continue our journey to discover how the economy really works and provide nourishment for independent minds.
Every week SCOTONOMICS delves into the details of our modern economy. We all know that something is wrong with the way that the economy is currently working and we will find out why.
SCOTONOMICS will pose challenging questions to leading economists from across the globe as we explore the myths and in many cases the lies, that govern our lives in a modern economy.
SCOTONOMICS is essential viewing for anyone interested in Scottish politics and the Scottish economy.
LIVE Every Wednesday on YouTube and all episodes first on the SCOTONOMICS Patreon.
