Lifting the Lid on the Economic Elite

Tariq Ali, Matt Kennard

IN CONVERSATION
A series of events bringing thinkers together to share and explore key topics of the moment.

Many believe the economic deck is stacked against ordinary people. The richest 10% hold 43% of all wealth, while the poorest 50%, hold 9%. But the situation may be even more one-sided. Join investigative journalist Matt Kennard and political activist and voice of the international left Tariq Ali as they lift the lid on how the economy works and expose the shortcomings at the heart of the current global order.

"Ali remains an outlier and intellectual bomb-thrower; an urbane, Oxford-educated polemicist." - The Observer
