I’ve lived near #Yeovil for 11 years now. That’s 1/3 of my life. I’ve seen it go on quite a journey over that decade+

In contrast to High Streets up and down the UK, you can’t help but feel the town is on the up
1/
There are some fantastic places to visit in #Yeovil, too many to list here - and there’s genuinely something for everyone. Come and walk around the @QuedamCentre, bucking the high street closure trend and bursting with big names and indy shops
3/
Or visit #PrincesStreet - also bucking the national high street trend and thronged with indy shops

Why not have a burger and a cider at #cowandapple? Or some French cuisine at #lesamis? Both overlooking the beautiful St John’s Church right in the middle of town
4/
Sure, there are scruffy parts of town (which town doesn’t have those?!), but if the journey I’ve witnessed over the last 10 years is anything to go by, it’s clear that #Yeovil has a terrific future

The financiers, the bankers, but above all *most politicians* don’t want you to understand how money really works

The government has unfettered access to enormous sums of money that it could use to deliver life changing investment in people’s lives
1/
The government, and them alone, has the ability to invest massively in public services, in hospitals, in schools, infrastructure, R&D, economic development

In doing this, guess what… The economy will grow. Society will be more resilient. Healthier. Better educated. Happier
2/
How can it do this? In short: because of the relationship between HM Treasury and the Bank of England - government debt is simply money it owes itself or its investors (if you’ve premium bonds then that’s you!)
