From Partygate and Boris Johnson’s farewell to Jeremy Corbyn handing over Labour’s leadership to Keir Starmer – bestselling author John Crace is taking us on a hilarious tour of the whirlwind world of post-Brexit Britain.
Over the past few years, the various Prime Ministers, and some heated parliamentary debates at Westminster, John Crace’s brilliant political sketches have provided the nation with some desperately needed comic relief.
He will speak about his new book, Depraved New World: Please Hold, the Government Will Be With You Shortly, capturing British politics at its most absurd.
