Government
In this month's episode, Andrew looks at how people make a living in cities, and what the impact of new technology will be on urban jobs. Will automation destroy more jobs than it creates? Are city economies being stifled by the cost of housing? Will the government's approach to tackling low pay and productivity work? Joining Andrew to discuss these questions are Ryan Avent, News Editor at the Economist and author of The Gated City, and Giles Wilkes, Leader Writer for the Financial Times and a former Special Advisor to Vince Cable when he was Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills.
