Most people in the UK do not oppose debt-financed public investments! How we frame the issue (also in surveys) matters greatly - findings from a School of Social & Political Science Edinburgh survey published by UCL Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose. Btw - similar results for Germany, as d|part Think Tank & FiscalFuture show: dpart.org/en/publication…
