Fascinating set of talks from an RSA event on 'the social impact of the web: society, government and the internet', including one from George Osborne, MP, shadow chancellor, in which he discusses open source principles and software quite extensively, and mentions his party's vision of seeing Britain as the open source leader in Europe.

His talk is about 15 minutes in to the audio at www.thersa.org/__data/assets/file/0018/1809/lecture080307a.mp3

A transcipt is also available online at www.thersa.org/__data/assets/pdf_file/0012/660/The-social-impact-of-the-web-osborne-080307.pdf
