The Changing Tax Consensus

Register for this Adam Smith Institute webinar.

We don't need to remind you of the certainty of taxes in this life.

However, in the face of unprecedented public spending and the need for rapid and sustained recovery from Covid, has our opinion on the specifics of fiscal rates or the theory that underpins them changed? With international powers exploring a trendy multilateral tax consensus, growing public appetite for increased spending, and major political parties in the middle of soul-searching missions, are we seeing a realignment in partisan attitudes towards tax? What does a modern day tax policy look like?

We'll be answering all these questions and more with our panel of experts:

Morgan Schondelmeier, Head of External Affairs at the ASI (host)

Steve Baker MP, Conservative Member of Parliament for Wycombe and member of the Treasury Select Committee

Polly Mackenzie, Chief Executive of Demos. Previously Polly served as Director of Policy to then-Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg

Richard Teather, Owner of Tax Strategy Consultancy. Richard served as Senior Lecture in Tax Law at Bournemouth University for over 20 years, and is an ASI Fellow.
