We hosted the event ‘Ten Years On: Brexit and Britain’s Political Future’, chaired by Professor Tony Travers, to mark a decade since the 2016 referendum.
🎤 It brought together an exceptional panel of experts, including Emma Duncan, Lord Matthew Elliott, Professor Sara Hobolt, and Professor Anand Menon, for a lively and thought-provoking debate exploring how Brexit unfolded and how it continues to shape debates over democracy, sovereignty, and the UK’s relationship with Europe and the wider global order.
We’d like to thank our speakers for taking the time to join us, share their perspectives, and contribute to a dynamic and engaging discussion. Particular thanks go to Professor Tony Travers for chairing the event so brilliantly, and to our Head of Department, Professor Sara Hobolt, for bringing her invaluable expertise along with insights from her new book Tribal Politics: How Brexit Divided Britain.
📍 We had a fantastic turnout for the event, almost completely filling out the historic Old Theatre. The discussion was followed by an engaging Q&A with questions from both the online and in-person audiences.
Guests then joined us for a drinks reception, including a special Brexit archival showcase organised by the LSE Library, highlighting fascinating relevant materials from their collection.
✨ We were thrilled to see so many of you there — thanks to all who attended!
Professor Paul Kelly talks about his latest book ‘Post-liberalism. Why ‘Family, Faith and Flag’ is a dead end for the left.’ 📖🤔

This annual lecture honours the political philosopher and our former colleague, Professor Brian Barry, who taught in the Department of Government at LSE between 1987 and 1998, and was later an emeritus professor in the School. Barry was an eminent political theorist whose contributions have shaped the development of the field across a number of topics and methods, from social choice theory to the theory of justice, from democratic theory to multiculturalism.
In a fitting tribute, Professor Cordelli’s lecture explored capitalism as a “rule of none" – an impersonal and illegitimate form of governance by investment markets. It analysed the alienation we face from investment processes that decide our futures and questioned what we can do against this.
The event was followed by a drinks reception where guests could mingle and discuss new ideas and debates raised by the lecture.
We’d like to thank Professor Chiara Cordelli for her fascinating lecture and all those who came along to enjoy it.

Chaired by Professor John Sidel, the event discussed how modern #democracy was designed to protect the interests of the ultra-rich and what can be done about to shift this extreme imbalance of power.
📖 After an enthusiastic Q&A, attendees were excited to buy a signed copy of the book and chat further with Professor Winters.
Many thanks to all who attended!
