    Liberalism: a great new book focusing on what politicians do
    Jun 8 2025

    The latest episode of Never Mind The Bar Charts features an interview with Emeritus Professor Jonathan Parry, whose new book, Liberalism, explores the history of liberalism as a political idea in Britain.

    Parry emphasises that liberalism is best understood through the actions of politicians rather than the abstract theories of political intellectuals.
