Deputy Prime Minister: Lessons from New Zealand

  • Adam Smith Institute 23 Great Smith Street London SW1P 3DJ United Kingdom (map)

Join us on Monday, 9th June to discuss politics, regulation and New Zealand with their Deputy Prime Minister, David Seymour MP.

​New Zealand has a rich history of success with free-market economics. "Rogernomics" is popular with all politics and history nerds of a liberal persuasion. But how is New Zealand continuing this heritage? And what can the world at large learn from their successes?

​​​The Hon. David Seymour MP will be the 14th Deputy Prime Minister of New Zealand on 31st May. He is the seventh Leader of the ACT Party, the first Minister for Regulation and has been the Member of Parliament for Epsom since 2014. He'll be talking about his vision for New Zealand and what fellow countries can learn from them!

The Rt. Hon. Lord Hannan of Kingsclere is a Conservative life peer in the House of Lords. A former MEP, he is the International Secretary of the Conservative Party, an adviser to the Board of Trade and President of the Institute for Free Trade.

​​​​Doors open at 6pm for a sharp 6.30pm start. There will be a 20-minute address by David Seymour MP followed by a 15-minute fireside chat with Lord Hannan, follwed by 10–15 minutes of audience Q&A.
