Thursday, September 04, 2008 from 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM (GMT)
Join Polly Toynbee and a panel of commentators and policymakers to discuss the real implications of Britain’s widening pay gap.
In a new book, Unjust Rewards: Exposing the Greed and Inequality in Britain Today, Polly Toynbee and co-author David Walker investigate inequality in modern Britain, speaking to people at every level of pay, from top City bankers and lawyers to single-parent families.
Weaving the argument for fairer tax with a defence of what tax money buys, Toynbee and Walker argue not for more tax in total, but for tax that is distributed more equitably.
For more than 200 years, the RSA has provided platforms for leading public thinkers. That tradition lives on in our free events programme.
Our distinguished and diverse roll call of speakers has recently featured, amongst others, Kofi Annan, Wangari Maathai, Al Gore, Clay Shirky, Jeffrey Sachs and Craig Venter.
