In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with economist Liam Halligan for a conversation on Britain’s economic decline, government failure, and the policies driving stagnation. We examine why the UK economy has struggled to grow, from high taxes and overregulation to the long-term consequences of energy policy and Net Zero. Liam explains how weak productivity, rising public spending, and political short-termism have left Britain falling behind its global competitors. The conversation explores inflation, debt, housing, and the cost-of-living crisis, alongside the structural problems facing the British economy. We discuss the role of the Bank of England, monetary policy, and why economic decision-making has become increasingly detached from the realities facing ordinary households. We also discuss immigration, labour markets, and whether Britain’s political class is willing to confront the scale of reform needed to restore growth and prosperity. A hard-headed conversation about economics, policy, and whether Britain can reverse its long-term decline. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To see more exclusive content, ad-free watching and more...consider subscribing to my substack here: https://open.substack.com/pub/winstonmarshall/p/were-on-the-brink-of-a-crisis-liam?r=18lfab&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/ X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshall Insta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshall Linktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
