Phil Mullan, (DoB 17/08/1955) who formerly used the pseudonym Phil Murphy, is an economist and business manager and is associated with the libertarian anti-environmental LM network. He has been a member of the RCT and RCP, national organiser of the Irish Freedom Movement (in 1988), a contributor to Living Marxism, Channel Cyberia, the Institute of Ideas and Spiked, , a registrant of the Spiked website, a shareholder of the Academy of Ideas, a trustee of Global Futures and was interviewed for Debating Matters.

His Battle of Ideas biographical note is rather modest about his long term involvement with the LM network, though it does mention his spell at the University of Kent where he came under the spell of Frank Furedi and the Revolutionary Communist Tendency:

Phil Mullan is an economist and business manager. Author of The Imaginary Time Bomb: Why an Ageing Population is not a Social Problem, he has researched, written and lectured on economic, demographic and business issues. Research projects have included work for the London East Research Institute at the University of East London and the Tomorrow’s Company business think-tank.

He alternates, and sometimes combines, work as an economist with business management, and currently is working full time as UK Managing Director of Easynet Global Services, the global corporate communication services company. Born in Belfast, Phil moved to Britain in the early seventies where he gained a BA in Economics from Kent University. He also holds a CIMA Certificate in Business Accounting.
