AUSTRALIAN HERE: If this was overdubbed with an Australian accent I would NOT be able to tell the difference. Even with the British accent I am struggling to understand if he his talking about Britain or Australia. I'm actually an engineer who's been looking into Economics because of the interference I have seen in the engineering space and the training of skilled tradesmen from economists. AND YES I watch Gary Stevenson's channel here on YT as part of that. Gary has recently confirmed something I worked out and something economists like Steve Keen have been trying to explain. There's 2 major issues with Economics education. 1) It is very narrowly focused on market economics and includes NOTHING regarding any understanding of things like infrastructure or energy systems. Everything is taught from a market perspective rather than a functional perspective. This is why Thames Water has the current issues it has and those issues are being repeated across the entire Western Democratic world and not just in water but also energy, infrastructure, rail and worst of all education. 2) It is uniform across all of the tertiary education systems. All of the text books are printed by Harvard Press, Oxford Press, Cambridge Press,... etc OR they are written by people who studied at or teach at Harvard Press, Oxford Press, Cambridge Press,... etc. The problem at the political level is that EVERY politician in the Western World NO MATTER if they are Left, Right or Center all studied the same economics at university or they have advisors who studied the same economics at university. This is why no matter who wins political power the overall economics doesn't change or only changes very little AND WHY there's no real solutions in sight.
