Is the Royal Wedding a symbol of greater UK social mobility? In the week of the Royal Wedding, Analysis Review debates whether social mobility has improved in the UK since the Second World War, and what impact the Lib-Con coalition can have, as austerity measures take effect to reduce the public debt. In the chair, analysis editor Frederick Studemann debates the issues with John van Reenen, LSE economics professor and director of the Centre for Economic Performance, Robert Shrimsley, FT.com managing editor and columnist, and Chris Cook, FT education correspondent.
