Today we will go back in time a bit to look at a video I did on September 15, 2022, about the UK High Court's decision to allow the UK Treasury to change the terms of £500 billion Gilt Linkers.

At the time I said it was a technical default and that it would hurt the credibility of the UK government. With the Gilt market collapsing a few weeks after that and the meltdown in final salary pensions, we have focused on Kwarteng's mini-budget.

My conclusion though is that it was the High Court's decision in late August that was the major reason behind the debacle in the Gilt market and the collapse of sterling.
