Back in 2016, economists said Brexit was unlikely to happen and the media reported that Hillary Clinton was a safe bet for the US presidency. Since then, it’s fair to say that world events have taken an unexpected turn. But why didn’t we see it coming? Did the experts really get it wrong or are we being unfair? In an ever evolving business and economic landscape, is certainty now a thing of the past? Is there any point in making predictions at all? This week George and Lizzie are joined by leading business journalist, James Ashton, and Deloitte’s chief economist, Ian Stewart, to find the answer to our latest big question: why do the experts keep getting it wrong?
