Selling Economic Freedom: Conversation with Matthew Lesh, of the Institute of Economic Affairs
We choose from thousands of products in a supermarket or online, and often own multiple electronic consumer goods. It’s not uncommon for people to catch multiple flights a year, chosen from many competing airlines. Free markets are everywhere and have transformed our lives. Yet many have never been more cynical about what they deliver, or keener to have the government interfere in their function.
Join us on Wednesday 19th June for our drinks and conversation with Matthew Lesh the Director of Public Policy and Communications at the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA).
Founded in 1955 the IEA is an educational charity and free market think tank. Their mission is to improve understanding of the fundamental institutions of a free society. Matthew is a columnist for CityAM, and a regular writer for publications such as The Times, The Telegraph and The Spectator. He is also a Fellow of the Adam Smith Institute and Institute of Public Affairs. You can find Matthew on X/Twitter and see more at his website.
