Between 1997 and 2007, New Labour sought to reshape Britain into a more cohesive and forward-thinking society. The decade saw the rise of socially liberal attitudes and flourishing public services under a government committed to rebuilding and investing in them. Yet New Labour's track record was far from flawless and its legacy remains complicated and contested. Glen O'Hara, Professor of Modern and Contemporary History at Oxford Brookes University, examines both the intentions behind New Labour's policies and their real-world effects, and traces the lasting impact of the Blair years. Chaired by Nick Pearce, Institute for Policy Research. This Institute for Policy Research event took place on 5 May 2026.

Authoritarian populists now govern one-quarter of the world's democracies. But is this peak populism, or the populists' tipping point? Liam Byrne exposes the forces propelling the populist surge and reveals how to stop it. He outlines populism's five tribes and shows which voters can still be won back. He traces the millions of pounds flowing into Britain's populist media-political complex, and maps the rhetoric that populists use. He explains why simply shouting louder from the political mainstream never works and instead makes the case for rebuilding a confident, values-driven radical centre – one that tackles inequality head-on, restores economic dignity and reconnects with communities who feel unseen. Chaired by David Klemperer, Institute for Policy Research. This Institute for Policy Research event took place on 30 April 2026.

Liberalism has long shaped political life across the modern West. But in recent years, post-liberalism has become one of the most talked-about ideas on the ‘New Right’, attracting supporters including American Vice-President JD Vance. Professor Matt Sleat (University of Sheffield) discusses post-liberalism: what it is, where it comes from, and why it has gained momentum. He examines the problems he sees in the movement’s diagnosis of today’s political challenges, and argues that its proposed solutions come with grave risks, from authoritarianism to coercion. He also considers how liberals might respond to post-liberalism, and what the shift means for the future of conservative politics. He is in conversation with Dr David Moon (University of Bath). This Institute for Policy Research event took place on 26 March 2026.
