Adam Smith Institue Conference Speakers

[mentalbunny]

The speakers are:
Paul Ormerod (Author of Butterfly Economics)
Alan Duncan MP (Conservative, monetarist-type guy)
Andrew Haldenby (or REFORM, all for privitisation of public services)
Clare Fox (living contradiction of the Institute of Ideas, formerly of LIving Marxism, this woman's gone from revolutionary left to extreme right, or so it appears, she says she hasn't, we'll see)
Peter Kellner (newspaper columnist and chairman of YouGov, pretty middle of the road, writes for the Observer sometimes)
Dr Mark Pennington (lecturer in public policy at Queen Mary College)
Richard Ritchie (works for BP, could be fun!!!!)
Dr Masden Pirie (president of the ASI, so probably a neo-con)

The conference is for about 200 lower Sixth form students, me amoung them. I've done a little research, but does anyone know any more about them?

Well, you could get the voting record of the MP.

Try getting your hands on an abridged version of some of their books, and then write a critique of it, should be pretty easy.

Tell us what happens in the end.

One of my mum's friends knows Clare Fox. Apparently she's returned to catholicism but with very liberal tendencies and speaks in "doublespeak" (quoting my mum).
