This is a video that has not gone viral but needs to. Victoria Grant explains the banking rip off in simple language to an audience in Philadelphia.
If you haven’t heard of Victoria Grant that is hardly surprising, because she is a 12 year old Canadian schoolgirl. Recently she made a speech at a political meeting in Philadelphia, delivering it from memory and to rapturous applause from an enlightened audience. The linked video is self-explanatory. Not only that, it is simple, so simple that a 12 year old can understand it, which begs the question, why can’t our overpaid economists like Richard D. Wolff? Or the Chairman of the Federal Reserve for that matter? Could it be because they are paid handsome salaries not to?
Although Victoria Grant is speaking from a Canadian perspective, what she says can be extrapolated to the whole world, including especially at this moment in time to Greece. So can her proposed solution, which is to take the power to create credit away from the banks and give it to responsible – and accountable – national governments where it belongs.

If “Chestnuts” sounds extremely simply that is because it is the first piece of music I ever composed, circa 1979. It was written on the acoustic guitar at Chestnut Avenue, Leeds. The jazz musician Xero Slingsby lived in the same house for a time. I found out a year or two ago that he had died young.
This recording was arranged and performed by Diana Bliss in March 2026. Better late than never!
A much earlier recording played (badly) by me on the guitar can be found here:

A slight clarification, Blenheim Square is the name the so-called developers have given this project. The shopping centre is actually called the Blenheim Centre. It also housed the Wilko store which closed sometime ago, and today I noticed the card shop CARD FACTORY had closed. Not that there is much call for cards nowadays.
The square outside the Blenheim Centre is called Empire Square.
