Hello! In this video we look at who owns your central bank, or my central bank (Bank of England), or the central banks in general like the Federal Reserve. We also talk about debt, and cats. I say we, it's me doing the talking really. And writing this too.

This video also features...

Hey! Remember the 2007/2008 financial crisis? Well, even If you don't, a lot of people think it was caused by a particular financial product linked to housing, derivatives. If you don't know what these are, the video will tell you 3 things. You might have derived that they aren't being sold anymore, they are. And not just ones linked to housing, but also linked to water. Oh, and also this video...

In this video I go very undercover and take you on a walking tour around the land of three of the biggest landowners in London. I also ask if all land is owned by foreign investors (it's not).

In this video I explore three reasons house prices are high, that are all to do with banks. I look at the latest data from the Bank of England on bank lending. This video was filmed around Bankside, in London. Because we're talking about Banks. Why are house prices so high? What do banks lend for? What are derivatives? Are banks lending to small businesses?

Why are house prices so high? Will building more houses help? What is happening to the housing market? Why does a flat in London cost nearly £1,000,000? In this video we go round some places where houses have been built and see if that has provided more affordable housing. We also go to a market. I say we, it's me. And there is a cat.

The role of charging rents and access to l...

This is the first part in my economics walking tour of the concept of work. The point of this tour is that we always ask each other 'what we do' for wages. But we never ask about sources of wealth. That was supposed to be the main point, I may not have said it, but that's the point. I did say potato several times in a slightly weird way. Sorry about that. This tour features a surprise guest app...

In this video I take a look at the industrial revolution and particularly the aspects that a lot of British people don't know about (and that I never learnt in school). It's very windy. Sorry about that. I consider the following questions: What was happening in the rest of the world before the Industrial Revolution, and why don’t we learn about it? When we talk about the loss of manufacturing j...

I sit down and have a chat with Tatiana Garavito, about all sorts of things we can do to live well, in a way that doesn't cause harm to others. We cover a lot of projects, from housing issues in South London, all the way through to mining in Colombia.
