In The Fair Necessities, Will Snell argues that unfair inequality undermines everything from faith in government to economic growth, yet a fairer country is within reach. Drawing on cutting-edge research and interviews with public figures, the book sets out the moral, political and policy cases for tackling inequality and explains how to build a broad, cross-party consensus for a fairer society.
Bringing together leading experts from academia, policy, and civil society, this event will examine how inequality lies at the heart of our problems in contemporary Britain. Our speakers will explore what a genuinely fair society might look like — from the reform of public services and the tax system to housing, work, and opportunity — and ask what it will take to make it happen.
