Charting The Course
Lord Norman Lamont
Thursday 8 October, 16:15
Lord Lamont will be the final keynote
speaker at this year’s Travel Convention.
He was the last Chancellor to manage a
recession presiding over the withdrawal
of sterling from the Exchange Rate
Mechanism which quickly became known
as Black Monday.
His experience puts him in a good position
to chart the likely course of the current
recession, the challenges and pitfalls for
Brown and Darling, the next steps for the
G20 and the outlook for UK business and
recovery.
After 25 years in the House of Commons
— including several years in the Cabinet
under both Margaret Thatcher and John
Major — he has a wealth of experience
and anecdotes which he’ll share with Travel
Convention delegates.
