No surprise here. Jeremy Corbyn was always supported by serious economists, and was always unique in being so.
Scores of leading economists signed letters in support of him during the Labour Leadership Election. Although but a simple hack myself, I organised one of those letters.
But not a single one of them did that for any of the other candidates, including two former Chief Secretaries to the Treasury.
Corbyn's advisers now include two Nobel Laureates in Economics.
He has brought proper Economics back into British politics for the first time in 35 years.
