Dear ,

It's not often you get to hear an international speaker of the calibre of Henry Olsen, but you'll have this opportunity Friday week (August 19) when the Australian Institute for Progress, in conjunction with the Menzies Research Centre, hosts a talk by him.

Olsen will discuss Trump, Brexit and the Forgotten People, at the London Club in Newstead, over drinks and canapes. It should be a well-informed debate because we will also have the results of our research from the last Australian federal election.

Robert Menzies famously spoke of "the forgotten people" as the natural constituency of the centre-right. Today, in America and elsewhere, traditional centre-right parties face revolts from voters angry at political elites.

Have the forgotten people been forgotten once more by an establishment remote from their everyday lives?

Olsen explains the constituency that propelled Donald Trump to presidential nominee, pushed Britain out of Europe, and is disrupting the status quo around the globe.

He will remember who they are, what they want, and how centre-right parties can win a majority.

When: Friday August 19, 2016, starting at 5:30 pm
