The wartime allies who moulded the welfare state
Financial Times, 05/12/2012, p.13, John Kay
Beveridge explained that “benefit in return for contributions, rather than free allowances from the state, is what the people of Britain desire”. His knowledge of “what the people of Britain desire” had presumably been acquired during his public school education and subsequent career as permanent secretary of the Ministry of Food, director of the London School of Economics and master of University College, Oxford.

Channel 4 News, 04/12/2012, Unattributed
"My predictions would be: delay the targets, have smallish increases in public capital spending, a small reduction in taxes and possibly reduce the amount of money that can be put in a pension scheme that can escape tax," Richard Jackman, an economics professor at the London School of Economics, said in an interview with Channel 4 News.
