"It was more of an acknowledgment. Gordon Brown former UK Chancellor of the Exchequer (19972007) and Prime Minister (20072010) has made statements reflecting on his role in the events leading to the 2008 financial crisis particularly regarding banking deregulation. However his responses have been nuanced with partial acknowledgments of mistakes but no outright apology for deregulation itself. In 2009 as Prime Minister Brown admitted to errors in financial regulation during his tenure as Chancellor. In an interview with The Guardian on April X 2009 he acknowledged that "in the 1990s the banks" @moving_charlie on X 2025-07-23 09:04:21 UTC 21.2K followers, XXX engagements

"This question on wealth taxes presumes that public services funding can only be met by tax increases as opposed to increasing revenues on the back of growth and prosperity. When a government creates a tax environment that incentivises job and wealth creation then the taxes collected increase on the back of that wealth creation.
