It was great to be invited onto BBC Question Time last week. Questions from the audience covered the government’s latest migration policy, its measures to tackle climate change and the drivers and impact of today’s cost-of-living crisis.
On immigration, we discussed the latest government plans to house migrants in ex-military bases instead of accommodating them in hotels.
On climate, the panel talked about whether we can ever get to net zero.
We were asked whether young people should accept they may never be able to afford their own home..
Asked about the cost-of-living crisis, I argued this isn’t something that’s out of our hands, driven by unstoppable external forces; it’s an inequality crisis driven by deliberate policy choices that we have the power to change.
