Alistair Darling’s decision to bash bankers at Labour’s party conference was predictable, misguided
A blame game you can bank on
Rather than try to turn bankers’ pay into what Angela Knight calls a ‘dog-whistle issue’, we need a chancellor of the exchequer who can put aside the narrow advice of opinion pollsters and think about what is best for the wider economy. Just don’t bank on Alistair Darling, or anyone else in this government, being able to do that.
