A lot of political folk have become authoritative commentators on yield curves.

A long time ago, I covered bond markets for a City newswire, and hated pretty much every minute of it.

I claim no particular expertise as a result, but I am still confident in saying two things about Westminster ’s current excitement over gilt yields.
