If you’re in London on Thursday do join us at the Institute of Economic Affairs where Forest is co-hosting, with the IEA, a small but perfectly formed event.
Preceded by drinks, it's a panel discussion entitled ‘Smoking Gun: Prohibition and the Infantilisation of Britain’. I’m chairing and our panellists are Chris Snowdon, Reem Ibrahim, Henry Hill, and Kara Kennedy (see below).
Chris needs no introduction; Reem is in her final year at LSE and was recently appointed communications officer at the IEA; Henry is deputy editor of ConservativeHome; and Kara is a staff writer at The Spectator World for which she recently wrote a widely acclaimed article, ‘An ode to smoking’.
The event will address the Khan review: making smoking obsolete and the Government’s forthcoming Tobacco Control Plan, the announcement of which is said to be imminent.
We’re excited to be back at the IEA for the first time since 2019 (ie before the pandemic) so join us if you can.
Places are limited so please register in advance. Email events@forestonline.org or go to our Eventbrite page to register there.
