I am pleased to share the following announcement from Tax Justice UK:
UPCOMING EVENTS
Announcing two Tax Justice UK and Tax Justice Network events at the Royal Scoiety for the Arts in London on 14 September 2017
PANEL DISCUSSION
17:30 - 19:00
How can we avoid another crisis?
A panel discussion with Daniel Mügge, Richard Murphy, Daniela Gabor and Nick Shaxson, moderated by Juliette Garside
We will hear from this expert panel about how another global financial crisis can be avoided, ten years after the first. Rather than focusing narrowly on the financial sector, this discussion will look at the role of the wider financial system, considering a range of factors including debt levels, the need for redistribution, and a 'race to the bottom' on tax and regulation.
This event is free but places are limited: BOOK HERE
SCREENING and Q&A: 19:45 - 22:30
The Spider's Web: Britain's Second Empire
Followed by a panel discussion with John McDonnell MP, Michael Oswald (Director), Nick Shaxson and Will Snell, moderated by Juliette Garside
The Spider's Web: Britain's Second Empire is a new documentary film that shows how Britain transformed from a imperial power to a global financial power. With contributions from leading experts, academics, former insiders and campaigners for social justice, The Spider's Web reveals how, in the world of international finance, corruption and secrecy have prevailed over regulation and transparency, and how the United Kingdom is at the heart of this system.
This event costs £15 per head and places are limited: BOOK HERE

Any chance of organising screenings of the film with a video link of the discussion in other venues? This is the sort of thing which filmhouses might take up – the GFT (Glasgow Film Theatre), Edinburgh Filmhouse etc.
I have no idea
But I will ask
