Is the Conservative Party still family-friendly?

By March 18, 2013June 5th, 2017No Comments

Strengthening family life is at the heart of the Conservative vision.  Before the 2010 General Election, David Cameron pledged that he was determined to make Britain the most family-friendly country in Europe.

Evidence suggests the priorities for families today are the cost of living, financing social care and childcare, the commercialisation of childhood, and family-friendly work. Has the Conservative Party got the right policies to support and strengthen modern families?

Speakers:

Liz Truss MP, Minister of State for Education and Childcare
Andrew Selous MP, PPS to Rt. Hon. Iain Duncan Smith MP, Minister of State for Work and Pensions
Samantha Callan, Chairman in Residence, Centre for Social Justice
Anne Longfield, Director, 4Children

Date: Monday 18th March 2013, 19:00
