Outlines the case for tackling inequality in Britain and offers a road-map to a fairer society.

Britain is a grossly unfair country, disfigured by a broken social contract and unsustainable levels of inequality. This moral outrage presents a growing threat to our society, economy and democracy.

The Fair Necessities argues that unfair inequality undermines everything from faith in government to economic growth, yet a fairer country is within reach. Drawing on cutting-edge research and interviews with public figures, including including Vince Cable, Polly Toynbee and Liam Byrne, it sets out the moral, political and policy cases for tackling inequality and explains how to build a broad, cross-party consensus for a fairer society. Engaging, evidence-rich and ultimately hopeful, it offers the vision -- and the practical roadmap -- needed to rebuild Britain on fairer foundations.
