Profile of Cherie Booth QC. “You studied law at the London School of Economics. What was your most memorable moment at university? I loved my time at university, particularly because of the excitement of the intellectual challenges.

Don't be taken in by the Chancellor's living standards myths
The Independent, 05/03/2015, p.58, Ben Chu
yesterday's IFS report did not produce an impact assessment specifically analysing the period 2010 to 2015 - instead looking at the whole period since 2007-08. And some research from the London School of Economics, which has a narrower focus, suggests the bottom half of earners have done worse than those in the top half over the period in this Parliament.
