Mark is the head of an inter-party Parliamentary group on debt and personal finance. This morning I went into work two hours early to attend. The topic of the meeting was the public perception of the credit crunch and speakers included the likes of Vince Cable MP, who is quite a big-wig in economics and former leader of the Liberal Democrats (the third biggest party in Parliament).
The conversation was pretty engaging and I got some insight into how the Brits understand the credit crunch and how they plan to deal with combating low public confidence. Many of the MPs actually blamed the media in Britain for making the situation appear worse than it actually is.
After work it's off to the LSE for more dissertation work.
Tomorrow me and some of my friends are going to see a Premier League football match (soccer game) which we're all pumped about. Then on Thursday through my program we're all going to see the musical Billy Elliot.
