Event Details


Martin Wolf CBE is Britain's leading economics commentator. His agenda-setting columns in the Financial Times have for decades excoriated the greed and short-termism of our decision-makers, and the underlying weaknesses of the financial system. He strongly supports core Lib Dem policies such as land-value taxation!

His latest book, The Crisis of Democratic Capitalism, powerfully outlines the tension between economic incentives and political stability. Drawing on his own family’s escape from the Nazis, he highlights the fragility of the peace and order we take for granted.

Martin and our parliamentary candidate Edward Lucas have been friends and colleagues for years. Don’t miss this rare chance to engage with one of Britain’s most influential and best-informed voices and hear him and Edward discuss the dangers we face and the solutions we need. Copies of Martin's book will be on sale.
