6.30pm - The Hub, 34b York Way, London N1 9AB. Public services are facing the twin challenges of rising need and increasingly constrained resources. This is in the context of an impending environmental crisis and wider inequalities than the UK has seen since the 1940s. We know that inequalities are socially corrosive, but are they also at the root of climate change? Could climate policy also have a role to play in levelling disparities in wealth? Or should social issues be held secondary before the threat facing everyone is dealt with? Our panel of experts will discuss the relationship between our economic system and the environment and whether, with so many calls on public spending, it is possible to tackle both.
