Michael Gove MP - The Keith Joseph Memorial Lecture 2013 - The 2013 Keith Joseph Memorial Lecture was delivered by the Secretary of State for Education Michael Gove MP.In a speech which touched on a range of policy areas, Mr Gove used Keith Joseph's various ministerial positions as a thread to argue that the Coalition government had a clear social policy to alleviate deprivation and hardship, and to provide the platform through which the very poorest in our society could achieve their potential. In this analysis, he touched on all of health, education, childcare, housing and justice policy. He argued that Keith Joseph was a 'compassionate conservative' and that the Government were fulfilling reforms which built on his legacy.In an open Q&A session following the lecture, Mr Gove was asked about the rise of UKIP, the Government's position on the EU, whether immigration policy was harming the higher education sector, whether Higher Education should be brought back inside of his department and whether he supported the idea of profit-making schools.

A DISTORTED DEBATE: The difference between debt and deficit - The Coalition came into office in 2010 with the stated aim that it would eliminate the current structural deficit by the end of this Parliament and stem the increase in public debt as a proportion of GDP.In A Distorted Debate: the need for clarity on Debt, Deficit and Coalition Aims Ryan Bourne and Tim Knox demonstrate that it now looks most unlikely that the Coalition will achieve either of these aims. Though the deficit has fallen by around a quarter since 2010, the cyclically-adjusted current deficit (the part the Coalition said it wanted to eliminate within five years), had only fallen by 13% by the end of 2011/12. The great majority of the reduction in the deficit has come from cuts to investment spending and tax increases, not from current spending cuts (the authors show that only 6% of the planned current spending contraction has so far been implemented).
