Last week I had the pleasure of attending the 25th Annual Tacitus Lecture held by the Worshipful Company of World Traders at the Guildhall in the City of London.
I have the honour of being a Liveryman of the company and I know that this lecture is one of the annual highlights of the City calendar.
Over 600 members of the company attended the event which was certainly stimulating and controversial. as the attached press article described http://tgr.ph/zQDN0t
Mr Smith was also asked onto the BBC Radio 4 “Today” programme where he again expressed his views succinctly http://www.terrysmithblog.com/
The conclusions of the lecture many will find surprising but perhaps the solutions are in keeping with the straight talking style of Mr Smith.
The video and transcript can be found here http://www.world-traders.co.uk/tacitus2012Public/index.php
In my opinion this was one of the best lectures we have had, particularly when one looks at the calibre and reputations of former lecturers.
