Let's meet at Holborn tube station, on the left outside the main entrance on Kingsway. We'll walk down together at 6pm on the dot, please be on time, the venue fills up by 6.15pm!

I attended the first lecture and found it incredibly absorbing and fascinating. Prof Manning clearly knows his subject and presents both sides well: the pro-immigration people who want to change what we get, and the other side who want to get what they want. So the two camps never persuade each other. Also perception outweiging reality on both sides. Very illuminating. I can't wait for the other two lectures, the first was great.

"Join us for the 2026 Lionel Robbins Memorial Lectures which this year will be delivered by Alan Manning. This lecture is one of three based on the newly published book, Why Immigration Policy Is Hard.
In this second lecture Professor Manning examines the foundations of immigration policy and their implications."

Please register for your free entrance ticket (Meetup attendance fee applies), they are asking a couple of questions:

There was a Reception with a free drink after the lecture on 2 February as Prof Manning was signing his book. I don't know if they'll do the same after the second and third lecture.
