Event information
The last 10 years of British politics has been one long psychodrama. The Scottish referendum. David Cameron’s surprise election win. Brexit. Theresa May. Boris Johnson. Liz Truss. Rishi Sunak. Each prime minister worse than the last. Covid. Partygate. The UK’s politicians had rarely looked so clueless. Even with the new Labour government we are still rushing through several news cycles each day.
John Crace, the Guardian’s much loved political sketchwriter, has had a ringside seat at all the main events. Join him for an evening of high comedy as he tries to make sense of it all. Find out what the Queen’s last words to Liz Truss really were. This might just be the best therapy session you’ve ever had.
Do come earlier to see Rob Newman ('Intelligence') at 7pm (separate ticket needed)
High quality food/bar/accommodation available at The Falcon Hotel.
Bring cash for a raffle to support Bude Literary Festival and 'Read For Good' (A charity that provides storytellers for children in UK hospitals.
