What do you think abou this, Meta?

The Bank of England Governor Mark Carney has warned that people will turn their backs on free and open markets unless something is done to help those left behind by the financial crisis.

In a speech, he said: "Globalisation is associated with low wages, insecure employment, stateless corporations and striking inequalities."

In many advanced economies there are "staggering wealth inequalities," he added.

Mr Carney was speaking in Liverpool.

He told his audience that politicians and central bankers must act to ensure people do not lose faith in the current system.

"Turning our backs on open markets would be a tragedy, but it is a possibility," he said.

"It can only be averted by confronting the underlying reasons for this risk upfront."

Ahmed: Carney says get real, there are losers from free trade

Mr Carney, giving the Roscoe Lecture at Liverpool John Moores University, spoke of the need for wealth distribution and putting individuals back in control.

He cited Prime Minister Theresa May's criticism of "stateless corporations" who paid little tax and had little responsibility to local communities.

The governor said: "Redistribution and fairness also mean turning back the tide of stateless corporations."

"As the prime minister recently stressed, companies must be rooted and pay tax somewhere.

"Businesses operating across borders have responsibilities," he added.

The lecture is only the second major public speech Mr Carney has given since the June Brexit referendum.

Since that vote, the governor has had to defend himself against criticism that he had made explicitly pro-Remain comments, and also against suggestions that the prime minister had been unhappy with the Bank's monetary policy because savers had lost out.

However, although Mr Carney acknowledged in his speech that there were losers from the policy of low interest rates, he said: "The thrifty saver and the rich asset holder are often one and the same."

"Just 2% of households have deposit holdings in excess of £5,000, [they have] few other financial assets, and don't own a home.

"So the vast majority of savers who might have lost some interest income from lower policy rates have stood to gain from increases in asset prices, particularly the recovery in house prices," he added.

The challenges to greater prosperity, he said, were far wider.

Mr Carney listed three priorities:

"Economists must clearly acknowledge the challenges we face, including the realities of uneven gains from trade and technology"

"We must grow our economy by rebalancing the mix of monetary policy, fiscal policy and structural reforms"

"We need to move towards more inclusive growth where everyone has a stake in globalisation."

Last week, the bank's chief economist, Andy Haldane, struck a similar note when he warned about Britain's widening inequality gap.

He was concerned not just with the gap between rich and poor, but also geographically - between north and south, east and west.

Mr Haldane said in a speech: "I think [the issue of regional inequality] is right up there as among the most important issues that we face today as a country."

"What's more, the variations are among the widest in Europe."

"More than half of British Muslims want to “fully integrate” with society, according to the most extensive survey of its kind.

Research involving more than 3,000 Muslims shows that they broadly share the views and priorities of the wider population, rather than being shaped by supposedly “Islamic” concerns. Ninety-three per cent feel a fairly or very strong attachment to Britain and are likely to identify the NHS, unemployment and immigration as the biggest issues facing the country.

British Muslims were more likely than the general population to condemn terrorism, the survey by ICM and Policy Exchange, the right-of-centre think tank, found. They were also more likely to give credence to conspiracy theories that the United States government or Jewish influences were behind the September 11 attacks.

Thirty-one per cent of Muslims blamed the US for the attacks on the World Trade Center, 7 per cent blamed Jews and 4 per cent blamed al-Qaeda, while 52 per cent said that they did not know. This compared with 71 per cent of the general population who blamed al-Qaeda, with 10 per cent blaming the US, 1 per cent blaming Jews and 16 per cent unsure.

There are 2.7 million Muslims in Britain, according to the 2011 census, accounting for 4.8 per cent of the population. The research, which involved focus groups across the country, showed that 53 per cent wanted to “fully integrate with non-Muslims in all aspects of life”. An additional 37 per cent said that they wanted to integrate on “most things”.

The research, which involved focus groups across the country, showed that 53 per cent wanted to “fully integrate with non-Muslims in all aspects of life”. An additional 37 per cent said that they wanted to integrate on “most things”.

Six per cent expressed support for leading “a separate Islamic life as far as possible”, and 1 per cent were in favour of “fully separate” Islamic areas in Britain. The research showed support for anti-extremism measures such as giving women more say in decision-making and government funding for community-based programmes.

Khalid Mahmood, Labour MP for Birmingham Perry Barr, said that Muslims were among Britain’s “most loyal, patriotic and law-abiding citizens”, adding: “In an era in which intolerance and bigotry pose a growing challenge to our society, it cannot be stressed enough that most British Muslims want to integrate with their non-British neighbours.” He was concerned by the “paranoid” belief in conspiracy theories that “dark, anti-Muslim forces” were behind 9/11 and the minority view that extremism did not exist.

The report said that Muslims were generally more devout than other religious groups but added: “In terms of their everyday concerns and priorities, British Muslims answer no differently from their non-Muslim neighbours.”

It warned that British Muslims should not be regarded as a single “monolithic” community and added that no organisation, particularly the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB), could claim to represent all Muslims. An MCB spokesman welcomed the survey and said that it would address the “worrying” level of belief in conspiracy theories, but asked why Policy Exchange seemed so keen to “delegitimise” it as an umbrella body.

Asked about threats and acts of terrorism, 90 per cent of Muslims condemned them and 2 per cent expressed sympathy. This compared with 84 per cent condemnation among the general population and 4 per cent sympathy.
The survey found that 35 per cent of respondents felt that moderate views were drowned out by extremist views, while 26 per cent of British Muslims thought extremist views “do not exist”."
