I apologize for the paywall. Basically, the article describes a former British central banker as (1) someone who predicted the 2008 downturn correctly (as if that gives the person credibility now) and (2) who says the world's central bankers are prioritizing controlling inflation over what the effects of their raising interest rates on the rest of us are. Re: (2), it's hard to argue with her on this point.
