The SMF is extremely pleased to invite you to this lunchtime seminar,
taking place at our offices at 11 Tufton Street, London SW1 (nearest

In an in-depth discussion, Jim Murphy, MP, Minister of State at the
Department for Work and Pensions and one of the contributing authors, will
talk to the Guardian’s Jackie Ashley about the politics surrounding
aspiration and discuss why he feels we need to reframe the poverty
debate.
"The Politics of Aspiration" also brings together valuable contributions
from Trevor Phillips, Chief Rabbi Sir Jonathan Sacks and several other
important advisers and academics on the importance of aspiration as a
driving force in ending poverty and increasing social mobility in the UK.
