Vince Cable visits Reading
08 November 2008
|
Global economic crisis, banks collapsing, government bail outs, a looming recession - suddenly you can't get away from the economic situation.
One politician who predicted all of this was Vince Cable MP, the deputy leader and shadow chancellor of the Liberal Democrat party. With over 40 years of economic experience as a lecturer at LSE, a treasury finance officer, chief economist to Shell and finally as the Liberal Democrat treasury spokesperson, Vince Cable is well placed to review our current the economic position and how we might get out of it.
On Thursday 13 November Vince Cable will be giving a talk entitled “The truth about the economy”. This is being held at the University of Reading, Palmer Building (Room 109) from 7.30 to 9.30 pm. The meeting is open to members of the public and free to all to attend.
Parliamentary Campaigner for Reading East, Cllr Gareth Epps said “Vince's speeches are always a pleasure to watch as his quick wit and strong knowledge of all topics is clearly apparent.”
Peter Walley, President of the Reading University Lib Dem Society, “The Liberal Democrat party clearly cares about young people, several key MP’s such as Lembit Opik, David Heath and Nick Clegg have been keen to come and talk to students in Reading.”
