Dark Money: How Offshore Billions Are Destroying Britain

Britain has turned its capital into a global money laundering machine. The pavements of central London are home to a soaring number of rough sleepers, yet its streets are lined with empty mansions. Who owns these houses? Often, no one knows – because the wealthiest people in the world have built the perfect system to hide their assets.

In this one-off event, Professor Kojo Koram (author of Uncommon Wealth: Britain And The Aftermath Of Empire) and Dr Dalia Gebrial (Novara Live co-host) will be joined by a range of expert guests to explore how the 1%'s secret offshore billions are ruining Britain. What's stopping our politicians from acting? And would a wealth tax be enough to turn the tide?

This event accompanies a gripping new investigative podcast, Death In Westminster, produced by Planet B Productions and coming to Novara Media this spring.

Expect big questions, bold analysis, and the kind of conversation you simply won’t find anywhere else.

Doors will open at 6.30pm and the event will begin at 7.30pm. You’ll have the chance to buy speaker books and Novara merch in the bar.
