Social and economic problems are complex things, but there’s always an easy target when times get tough – blame it on the rich!
But are the wealthy really making a buck at the expense of the rest of us, or are they unfairly maligned? And how should politicians deal with the politics of class – with ever higher taxation and redistribution, or by making the rich feel welcome, so they pay their taxes here in the UK?
To answer those and many other questions, CapX is delighted to welcome journalists Merryn Somerset Webb, Emily Carver and Martin Van der Weyer, along with entrepreneur and investor Luke Johnson for an online event.
