Ben Harris-Quinney

Benjamin Harris-Quinney (born September 29, 1983) is a British political theorist, historian, writer and commentator and Chairman of the oldest conservative think-tank in the United Kingdom, the Bow Group.
Harris-Quinney was educated at the Ward Freman Comprehensive School, the Institut d'études politiques de Strasbourg and the École de management Strasbourg, and went on to study International Relations and Economics at the London School of Economics.
In 2010 he put on the first exhibition on Sir Winston Churchill in Spain "Walking with Destiny" at the national exposition centre in Madrid, exploring the relationship between Churchill, General Franco and Spain.
In 2011 Harris wrote an article "The Eurozone & Germany - Understanding the German Mind". He argued for greater engagement and dialogue between the UK and the German populous, and the necessity for policy makers in the UK to better understand the economic and foreign policy motivations of Germany as the nation at the centre of the Eurozone.
He wrote an article for the Spanish newspaper La Razon.
Harris and the Bow Group published "A Fourth Way - Ideas for a New Conservative Manifesto" to the 2012 Conservative Party Conference. The manifesto was produced to parallel the Bow Group's 1973 "Alternative Manifesto" authored by the then Bow Group Chairman Peter Lilley which laid the foundations for Margaret Thatcher's 1979 manifesto. It argued for an end and a defeat of third way politics, the delineation of a fourth way and return to conviction politics of substantive ideas. Contributors included Peter Lilley MP, Liam Fox MP, Daniel Hannan MEP, Priti Patel MP, Roger Scruton, Tim Congdon, Bernard Jenkin MP and David Willets MP.
