Financial Showdown

Meet Martin Summers, the Former East European projects officer for the New Economics Foundation as he tells us a little of what is happening in the world of finance at the moment.

I got a call from a friend a few months back telling me I should speak to this guy as he is predicting all sorts of interesting stuff. A long while later and shortly before things started hitting the mainstream media I finally hook up with him and do a short interview with the kind assistance of a Twitter friend Richard.

I am thinking that if I had done the interview way back when first recommended, I would have appeared pretty prophetic.
