Speaker
Alastair Campbell
"We have to believe that things can be better, or we give up."
Alastair Campbell is one of the most important voices in modern British politics. Best known for his role as chief spokesman and strategist under Tony Blair, Campbell now works predominantly as a writer and broadcaster, remaining a leading thinker on the centre-left.
Campbell is co-host of the award-winning podcast The Rest is Politics alongside Rory Stewart. He has also recently written But What Can I Do?, in which he explores why politics has gone wrong, and suggests what each of us can do to overthrow a broken political system and make one that works for everyone.
"A loyal, brave and audacious man" - Neil Kinnock
