Lord Newby confirmed as additional Weekend School speaker

5.58.00pm GMT Wed 12th Nov 2008

Lord Newby, Lib Dem Treasury spokesman in the Lords, will speak on the economy at the next Weekend School

Lord Newby of Rothwell (Dick Newby) has confirmed he will speak at the Weekend School to be held at the Hotel Commodore in Llandrindod Wells on the weekend of 20/22 February 2009.

Lord Newby is the Liberal Democrat Treasury spokesperson in the House of Lords and he will speak at the School on the subject of the economy, an issue which while it has always loomed large, has recently developed into something much more ominous with the credit crunch, banking collapses, the recession, house-price free-fall and the very existence of the western capitalist model under question.

We very much look forward to Lord Newby's contribution to the School.
