Liam Halligan is an economist, author and broadcaster, best known for his award winning ‘Economics Agenda’ column in The Sunday Telegraph. He’s also reported for the Financial Times, Wall Street Journal, Economist, Channel 4 News and he’s a regular panelist on my show CNN Talk. A vocal Brexiteer, he argues the UK economy is stronger outside the European Union which he explains in the book ‘Clean Brexit.’ Between 2007 and 2013, Liam took swapped journalism for a role as chief economist at a multi-billion dollar asset management firm but then returned to his original passion for writing. He was the first member of his family to attend university and here he describes his rise from humble beginnings to the heights of the commentariat.
