Britain is a grossly unfair country, disfigured by a broken social contract and unsustainable levels of inequality. This moral outrage presents a growing threat to our society, economy and democracy.

In The Fair Necessities: Why We Need a Fairer Britain and How to Make It Happen, Will Snell, Chief Executive of the Fairness Foundation, argues that unfair inequality undermines everything from faith in government to economic growth, yet a fairer country is within reach.

Drawing on cutting-edge research and interviews with public figures, the book sets out the moral, political and policy cases for tackling inequality and explains how to build a broad, cross-party consensus for a fairer society.

Join our panel to mark the launch of the book and discuss what a fair society might look like, why it matters, and how we can make it happen.
