LSE public lecture
Why can so few young people afford to buy a house? Why do even top graduates struggle to find jobs? Why does politics – from voting to protesting – seem so pointless? Why is Britain not just 'broken' but also broke? Twenty-something journalists Ed Howker and Shiv Malik tell the sad, maddening story of how their generation's future is being strangled by the culture of short-termism.
Ed Howker, is associate editor of The Spectator, and previously worked for Channel 4's Dispatches and the Independent. Shiv Malik, 29 is a freelance journalist who, in 2008, was named by the Evening Standard as one of the thousand most influential Londoners. They are coauthors of The Jilted Generation: How Britain Bankrupted Its Youth.
