Parliament in an anti-politics age: The outreach challenge

Where: Portcullis House
Victoria Embankment, corner of Bridge Street
London, England SW1A 2LW
The Political Studies Association/Hansard Society 2009 Annual Lecture
The 2009 Political Studies Association/Hansard Society will be given by the Speaker of the House of Commons, Rt Hon John Bercow MP, taking them yet further into the debate of the future of Parliament in an age of 'anti-politics'.
Mr Bercow will be outlining three factors which contribute to this ‘anti-politics’ age and make the outreach challenge more testing: the decline of deference towards all institutions, the distance between much of the public and the political process and the fundamental inequality of information which exists in Britain today.
The lecture will be followed by a drinks reception. Early registration is advised. RSVP to hans...@hansard.lse.ac.uk
