the amazing Background Briefing team have done it again!
I listened to a repeat of Sunday's program tonight. Will Hutton: The European Lecture Wow! Fantastic stuff!!
You can find it, and other talks at:

The talk unmasks that silly fable that the unbridled market cures all. Social safety nets can not only enhance general quality of life, but also individual life expectancy, and (here is the surprise) economic performance too! Nice paradox there: keeping money off the top of the list of priorities actually makes more money.
