In association with the Academy of Ideas, a panel of leading academics, writers and thinkers will explore the challenges being posed and interrogate the claims being made by both sides. They consider how democracies and the 'moderate middle' might respond in the coming years. The panel includes David Aaronovitch (Times columnist, author and presenter of The Briefing Room), Trevor Phillips OBE (writer, businessman and former Chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission), Claire Fox (writer, director of the Academy of Ideas and author of I STILL Find That Offensive), Eric Kaufmann (author of Whiteshift: Populism, Immigration and the Future of White Majorities) and Matthew Goodwin (author of National Populism: The Revolt Against Liberal Democracy).
