Abstract
Reap what you sow: A defence of the Bank of England by Jamie Sanders In recent months the Bank of England has become somewhat of a political punching bag. Our PM, in the midst of post-referendum bewilderment, emphasized the distributional woes fuelled through unconventional monetary policy.
