David Lammy, Member of Parliament for Tottenham and a 2016 Labour London Mayoral candidate, outlined his vision for London’s future in a speech at the LSE on 24 March.

Discussing the opportunities and challenges that exist in London as a globally significant city which remains unequal and divided, Mr Lammy MP set out plans for how to ensure all Londoners benefit from the capital’s energy and dynamism.

The event was chaired by Professor Tony Travers, director of British Government@LSE as part of the British Government@LSE public lecture series. An initiative based in the Department of Government, the series has seen world class speakers consider a range of topics to develop research and understanding of British government and politics. All lectures in this series are open to members of the public.

A full transcript of David Lammy MP’s speech is available on his website.
