Leading chartered accountants and business advisory firm Price Bailey welcomed political strategist and best-selling author Alastair Campbell for an exclusive evening of discussion and debate at the prestigious ICAEW building in London.

 Revisiting Labour's campaign manifesto, Chudasama and Campbell discussed the proposal to attract private investment to drive public sector development. Campbell, while in support, also highlighted the Government's ability to modernise fiscal rules. Following the event, Chudasama echoed this, adding: "Modernising the fiscal rules would enable the bond market to support government borrowing and allow the government to invest in TRL level nine or higher assets - this would be good debt, and the returns could benefit the entire economy."

The evening featured a Q&A session, with audience questions ranging from British attitudes toward U.S. politics, to youth perspectives on national identity, and MPs' understanding of welfare issues affecting local communities and not for profit organisations.
