Abstract
Following the Chancellor’s Autumn Statement last week, the Nobel prize-winning economist, Christopher Pissarides, discusses the need for greater investment to bolster growth, the impact of reducing in real terms the job seeker’s allowance amongst other benefits to economically disadvantaged families, and the delicate balance between providing the poorest with good social welfare services whilst keeping taxes low.
