The Bank of England nearly financed the deficit. Does it matter?
Chris Papadopoullos, economist at OMFIF in this piece: Bank of England officials may have been surprised when they noticed their asset purchases almost matched state borrowing in 2020.

By the end of the financial year the Bank will have bought around £320bn-£330bn of gilts, with the budget...
