The British electorate faces a 'terrible choice' at the ballot box next month, according to the chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics.
Ian Shepherdson, chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics, told CNBC's "Squawk Box Europe" on Wednesday that the televised debate between Johnson and Corbyn had been "disappointing."
On December 12, Britons will head to the ballot box for the country's first pre-Christmas election in almost a century. In one particularly fiery exchange, the Labour leader claimed that if the Conservatives return to power next month, U.S. health firms would be given "full market access" to the state-run National Health Service in a post-Brexit trade deal.
"I think it sounds crazy that somehow the National Health Service is going to be the focal point of this trade negotiation," Clete Willems, a former Trump administration trade official and partner at Akin Gump, told CNBC on Wednesday.
