Speaking at two sessions at Battle

This year I will be speaking at two sessions at the Battle of Ideas festival in London on the weekend of 20-21 October. The first will look at the discussion of austerity with Dan Atkinson of the Mail on Sunday, David Smith of the Sunday Times and Philippe Legrain also on the panel. Immediately after that there will be a session on poverty including Brian Hill, a film director, and Jonathan Portes of the National Institute of Economic and Social Research. This year’s conference will be at the Barbican Centre.
