Might have been an opponent of Carney or a Brexiter too.

I don't want his head; I want him to be more balanced. None of his predictions so far in relation to the effects of Brexit have materialised.
He's not partisan, he's realistic. Businesses are having these debates too but I appreciate you may not be at the table for these.
What specific predictions do you disagree with, bearing in mind Brexit has not yet happened.
