Alper Kara's conclusion won't surprise you, but given Rachel Reeves seeming wilful forgetting of the events of 2008, its worth re-stating:

'The global financial crisis was a direct result of excessive risk-taking in an underregulated system. Governments had to bail out banks with taxpayer money, leading to more than a decade of austerity.
