artie's laura smith's injury is economist roger bootle who won the wolfson prize for developing a practical plan to dissolve the euro zone. today i'm at capital economics talking to roger bootle he's the head of the winning team in the wealth and price which is the competition to find a nice disruptive way for a country to exit the euro roger bootle thanks very much for talking to us now this wealth in prize the competition why was it important to you to put together such a strong and tree i was fascinated by the question that lord will some posed and as i thought about it i quickly became aware that no one to really satisfactorily even i think attempted to answer is no i thought we could learn a lot as well as contributing quite a lot in trying to answer it and that's what we did and talk me through your winning entry barry briefly country wanting to leave the euro must prepare

a plan in secret among a very small group of senior ministers and officials pretty much as soon as the plan is agreed it must be enacted in order to prevent news leaking out the banks will have to be closed over the relevant period which is probably a week and during that period capital controls will be in place almost say the friday night it will be announced to the people of the departing countries let's call it greece that from then on all the amounts that were in their bank accounts their pensions or whatever their wages prices which were formally expressed in euro's were now to be expressed in draco's and we suggest that the conversion rate between euro's and direct must be one for one now a lot of people get this mixed up they think well in that case what about the exchange rate on the exchanges there's no connection between the official conversion rate and what the drachma trades as and we're pretty sure it would trade

at a much lower rate probably around while perhaps even two to one against the euro and then the banks open again on the monday. for tuesday people putting their cards into a.t.m. so they can get your ohs out of their bank accounts which are now expressed in drachma thing only get those out at the exchange rate rules now between euro zone drachma because now the euro is trent's is treated as a foreign currency and this way they're not going to have drachma notes and coins available i think a lot of people got fixated on that we argue it doesn't really matter for the overwhelming majority of transactions particularly business transactions they're done electronically anyway and people use cards debit cards and credit cards they continue to do all that only when they use them it's drachma that they're actually transacting for small print actions that require cash then our suggestion is greece

carries on using your o's until new track when notes are available but your rates at the exchange rate or euros at the new one on one parity with the with the drachma well what will tend to happen is that a dual price system will develop because people will know that direct more aren't the same as your overall or they've been converted one to one rate they will tend to be a different price for your own cash as compared to crack credit or direct debit cards and that will be to some extent messy but it will be perfectly practical there are a lot of countries in the world operate to do currency into pricing system this all sounds very simple in times of in terms of real people using real money are there other complications the kind of macroeconomic level where there are huge complications and problems on one of the biggest is going to concern the legal position because what would happen at the point of greece leaves the euro is it

would read to nominate its debt its national debt into the drachma. now as far as domestic greek residents are concerned. not going to have any come back home that's the change is going to stand in on the great glory and great cause but we're going to be all sorts of contracts involving known greek citizens where there's going to be a lot of legal argy bargy because let's say a german credit for the sake of argument is not going to want his asset converted into drachma and he's going to argue that this contract was framed in euro's it should still be in euro's and in greece they're going to say oh it's now in drachma and so they're going to be arguments the courts could be heavily involved but the scope for that could also be reduced if euro zone governments reach an agreement on all this which i think they probably would then have to lay down guidelines under which terms of contract would be interpreted and dragged in which would be in

euro's and that would minimize the scope for legal argument the other major issue is not just complication it's a reality is that initially this is going to be very far from a magic wand when the drachma falls on the exchanges the price of goods and services in greece is going to go up possibly by quite a lot so initially living standards are going to be squeezed far from bringing relief to the order great person it's actually going to make matters worse initially however going forward things are then completely transformed because in a flash greece is more competitive not the grinding deflation they would tell fifteen years but instant pain is li greece is forty or fifty or sixty percent more competitive and the demand for greek output is going to take off that doesn't happen overnight but in a matter of months that will happen greek exports will start to rise greek imports will fall and that will generate employment and more income in greece so there's

a trade off a difficult period to go through first of all in order to secure later greater prosperity so if you compare that situation to the austerity that the greek the now facing which. would you say it's a better plan i think there's no doubt that greece in my view needs to get out of the euro i cannot see any way in which this current policy of austerity is going to bring any relief or stop this grinding process of trying to bring prices and wages down takes not years but decades to correct the sort of on competitiveness that greece is going through and what's more it raises the real value of debt so greece and the other weaker members of the euro face not one key problem but to their own competitive play their costs and prices are out of line with other countries in the euro and they're also saddled with very high levels of debt the problem with domestic deflation is in principle but the very badly but in principle it deals with one of these problems namely the lack of competitiveness but at the cost of

making the other problem debt even worse and what we're talking about is countries not only greece but possibly other countries that leaving the euro off to that your file seem to fear the breakup of the year is there not some kind of ahmed getting do you think that's where listed as well i think they're right to fear the breakup of the euro zone because. if greece for instance were to leave obviously we don't know how it would all work out suppose it's possible that the rest of the euro would then hang together but i doubt it i think if greece leaves before very long of us concerts countries will leave as well where they end up probably with the peripheral countries possibly all five of them say portugal italy ireland greece and spain or outside the euro possibly even joined by problems with some northern core remaining so in terms of thinking what might happen i think these people are absolutely right with regard to the consequences though i think they're completely wrong in the sense that you have to ask yourself from the leaders of europe have to

all stem cells. how can you imagine prosperity and stability for europe under the current setup what is the mechanism through which countries are of the moment ma heard in not just a recession but frankly a depression through which those countries can regain prosperity comic growth and stability i wish they could tell us something along because all i hear whenever they have a summit is they keep banging on about various forms of debt support and never about economic growth now i do think it's possible to imagine return to economic growth in the current setup by contrast if the euro breaks i can't imagine economic growth so far from being a disaster i think it could be the major step that leads to the restoration of growth in europe and what about these attempts to shore up the very same that we've seen recently another bailout for greece cheap money flooding international banks from the e.c.b.

they going to have any effect well i suppose it's possible to keep the whole show on the road that way if the northern countries are prepared to carry on shoveling this money into the southern countries although i frankly i think that there will come a limit because eventually the sums involved are going to be absolutely enormous and voters in the northern countries will say we don't want all this but even if the continued shoveling of money does take place which people to show on the road again that doesn't actually bring economic growth in the self all it's doing is preventing a financial collapse whereas these are countries that have undergone a very big drop in output and they've got huge levels of unemployment and is what we're seeing just purely a kind of fight between politics and economics is the reason that i'm going to muckle for example is so desperate to keep the air is a together because it's the major political project that germany has implemented over the last thirty years or say i think the politics of the economics are really

very closely intertwined and it's often difficult to work out where one stops and the other begin. i think you have to appreciate the european elites didn't have a pretty firm grasp of the economics from the start now i think they're getting the economics completely wrong that's to say their opposition to the idea of their fear of the idea of euro break up isn't just about the politics they think that the economics point very strongly that way as well because they fear the financial chaos that would stem from the euro breakup and they don't see the benefits to economic growth so i think they are opposed on both economic and political grounds and we talk a lot about about that the collapse of the year a century but all through this the currency has been oddly resilient hasn't it only really winding down now from quite a decent race against the dollar what do you put that down to i think this is a really big puzzle quite why the euro has been so strong there are reasons that one can put forward or are not myself completely convinced by any of them but one

thing the thing to bear in mind is foreign exchange markets on the tourist the short sighted the argument against the euro has always been that essentially it will collapse through the weight of its own contradictions as to when people trade on able to say world exchange markets tend not to like to bet on things like that you know something maybe next year maybe next month maybe in five years time it's not a really very solid thing to go on then there's also the question of what form the euro might take if it survives because it's the we could countries leave the eurozone arguably the euro's going to be a strong currency so very far from selling if you thought that sort of breakup was going to happen you ought to be buying it if the euro does become a current seed that applies to many fewer countries will it still retain its attractiveness for investors or are we looking at a return to tell the gentleman nation for example oh i think that the euro could

continue to be a very attractive currency indeed for many people it might be even more tragic. if you could imagine what's going to happen is the departure of the week of peripheral countries portugal italy holland greece and spain. perhaps even problems that the euro is as it were a great to do it markets germany and it's close satellites and it's going to be rob that car like currency area very much presumably the way the germany used to be run under the deutsche mark and accordingly i think investors will like the currency really very much thank you very much.

nuclear photocells sorry. radioactive fallout of a government betrayal of the government. everything lauded and lauded and claude how can the truth be revealed if there's no official evidence there was a need to use a very great danger to the servicemen concerned who will give them no problem. and to the people of this country generally because already like the full. the secrets of the u.k.'s nuclear tests exposed. it's leave. you to believe. it's.
