Welcome to the IEA Podcast. The Institute of Economic Affairs is the UK’s original free market think tank, founded in 1955. Our mission is to improve understanding of the fundamental institutions of a free society by analysing and expounding the role of markets in solving economic and social problems. Given the current economic challenges facing Britain and the wider global environment, it is more vital than ever that we promote the intellectual case for a free economy, low taxes, freedom in education, health and welfare and lower levels of regulation. We hope you enjoy listening!

Last month, food and medicine shortages sparked riots in Cuba, with people rallying against the communist regime. Protesters were heard calling: “We have no fear” and “Down with the dictatorship” as they staged the biggest revolt against the government for decades.
IEA Communications & Marketing Assistant, Kieran Neild-Ali, sat down with Head of Political Economy Dr Kristian Niemietz to discuss the Cuban uprising, asking why some politicians on the left are often apologists for Castro's revolution. They discuss the history of the brutal regime and predict what could happen next for Cuba.
