Dining Room, The Cambridge Union

We are joined by Norman Blackwell, a former Downing Street policy unit director who worked for both Margaret Thatcher and John Major. Lord Blackwell is currently Chairman of the Centre for Policy Studies. He was a Special Adviser in 1986 and 1987, and was Head of the Prime Minister’s Policy Unit at 10 Downing Street from 1995 to 1997.

Lord Blackwell was formerly a Partner at McKinsey & Company, and a director of Dixons Group. He currently has a range of business interests including non-executive director of Standard Life, Slough Estates plc, Interserve plc and Corporate Services Group plc. He is also a senior adviser to KPMG and a Board Member of the OFT. He was created a Life Peer in 1997.

This is our last meeting before we take a break for revision and exams. Come along to what promises to be a fascinating talk. We next meet at the Chairman’s Dinner!
