In this episode, we hear from Christopher Snowdon who is the head of lifestyle economics at the Institute of Economic Affairs.

Chris wrote a recent article, entitled The bizarre campaign against Physician Associates, in which he argues that the interests of doctors are being elevated above the interests of patients. Chris talks about he sees this as the driving force for the recent anti-PA campaign.

Chris is the author of Killjoys, Selfishness, Greed and Capitalism, The Art of Suppression: Pleasure, Panic and Prohibition Since 1800, The Spirit Level Delusion, and, Velvet Glove, Iron Fist. You can find him tweeting at @cjsnowdon
