Robert Jenrick on LBC, 5 September, on Nigel Farage and the would-be Reform UK donors in the Channel 4 film: “He didn’t know what was going on.”

Developing countries aren't trapped by "hefty borrowing costs". They're trapped by debts in currencies they can't issue. Dollar debt is a real constraint. Pound debt isn't, for the UK.
