Andrew Neil is a professional asshole though
Brillo might chat a good shit in the quickfire format of a TV interview, but it's far easier to knock something down than it is to build it, especially when you're in your element.

Mr Prof came on expecting to be listened to, Brillo fairly gently asked him to justify his words, particularly in the light of previous comments he made which proved to be wrong, and he folded spectacularly. Personally, I'm ambivalent to both of them and wanted to hear what the Prof had to say.
Its easy to knock something down if it has no foundation. And Prof was in his element - talking economics.
