Sustaining Progress: Statements.

 

I make that point because these forecasters should be shown up on every occasion. They have the greatest brass necks in society. We talk about many groups but these people can pop up on "Morning Ireland" or television programmes, a month after getting it wrong about growth, inflation, deflation and other aspects of the economy, and give a new set of forecasts, yet nobody asks them about the previous set. They should be challenged every time and I am fed up asking radio interviewers to remind these people about their previous forecasts.
