In this week's episode of Cargo of Bricks, I'm talking with Graham Brownlow who is a Senior Lecturer in Economics at Queens Management School in Belfast about the economic effects of Covid 19, and what he thinks our response needs to be.Some of the themes we talked about include:Rise of internet-based giants like Amazon poses huge business case challenges for local retail calling into question its capacity to continue providing services to local communities, leading to downward pressure on commercial rents...Northern Ireland's economy remains disproportionately reliant on low waged and low skilled workers who are suffering disproportionately during the crisis by taking on higher health risks and a more uncertain future.Belfast, not Derry, is the outlier in terms of economic performance, so the recovery plan must invest long term ambitions to overturn demographic and geographic imbalances through early years learning, clean budget planning, and infrastructure.

#CargoOfBricks 2: Graham Brownlow on economic recovery from #Covid19 must be long sighted and ambitious

This is a bumper episode this week. I am joined by Dr. Graham Brownlow (Queen's University Belfast) to discuss the Northern Irish Economy.We go through the development of the Northern Irish economy throughout the 20th Century and a little bit before. Graham's expert knowledge really gives us a depth of understanding that I have not heard elsewhere.Indeed, I learned a lot from this discussion. Growing up in Longford we hear a lot about the politics of Northern Ireland but very little about the economy. Of course politics has influenced the economy and Graham talks about that but not always in the ways that you would expect.One such example is the story of how the DeLorean car from Back to the Future came to be manufactured just outside Belfast. It’s a fascinating story and we go through that in great detail.Enjoy! If you would like to support: http://www.patreon.com/IrishEconPod Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
