Prof Glen O'Hara, expert on Tony Blair's governments, and John Denham, former Minister under Blair, take the long view.

Main Lecture Theatre, John Henry Brookes Building

We invite you to take the long view on the governments led by Tony Blair in the late 1990s and early 2000s.Join us for a talk by an academic expert on the Third Way in government, and a discussion with a Minister from the time.The Blair administrations have been attacked endlessly for their foreign policy, for their supposed lack of redistribution, and privatisation of some public services. But what do those governments look like now that nearly two decades have passed since Blair left No. 10, and what lessons might they hold for Keir Starmer and his Labour government?Professor Glen O'Hara, author of a new book on the New Labour era due out early next year, and John Denham, one of Blair's Ministers, will talk over what we can learn from New Labour's time in power, both looking back to the turn of the century and also forward to the rest of this Parliament - and beyond.
