Since 1979, Question Time has been the BBC’s flagship political debate programme and invites a studio audience to quiz leading politicians, journalists and public figures about the most pressing events of the day. To mark the end of Welcome Week, the School of Society and Environment is hosting its own version of Question Time!
The legendary broadcaster and former host of Radio 4’s The Westminster Hour Carolyn Quinn will be joined by Professor Sophie Harman and Dr Richard Johnson from the Department of Politics and International Relations. Carolyn will also be joined by one of Britain's leading political journalists and and the author of the Financial Times's Inside Politics newsletter, Stephen Bush.
More speakers to be announced shortly!
