Sean Gabb on Doughty Street TV tonight
Brian Micklethwait (London)  Activism • Media & Journalism

There are quite a few fans of Sean Gabb who read this blog, so they might like to be told, if they have not been already, that Sean will be on 18 Doughty Street TV this evening between 9 and 10pm, discussing libertarianism. Sean is a fluent and experienced media performer and should be well worth seeing and hearing.

Here is a picture of him that I took last weekend, hatching who knows what plots with fellow Libertarian Alliance supremo Dr Tim Evans, at the LA's Conference in the resplendent National Liberal Club.

Captions anyone? Mine goes: "One day all this will be ours! Ours I tell you!"

He is good. It is that managed controlled, sincere tone that just doesn't change no matter what inane questions are thrown at him.

Darn. I was away for a bit and got this just in time to see him get up to catch his cab. Oh well.

Hopefully an archived copy will be available soon.

He was good. At the end, presenter Iain Dale said he'd like to get him back to do an even longer programme on libertarianism.

I enjoyed it, a result methinks.
