Who ever thought I'd be defending
modern economics from attack by someone who sounds like they disapprove of "
technocracy"? But I think Adam Curtis is using this concept in a rather slanted way. I will try to write something about this in due course.

Fabian, concord is needed here. 3rd person singular verb must have 3rd person singular subject, i.e. he, she or a combination.
This lazy modern tendency to 'they' in all contexts grates.
James,
I disagree. Are you sure that "they" meaning "he or she" unspecified is lazy and / or modern?
I think it's useful, and certainly better than saying "he or she".
