It was a fascinating discussion led by Renad Mansour from Chatham House MENA and Martin Coward, and lovely to have so many of my brilliant Queen Mary University of London colleagues come along.

More high praise for Karl Pike's 'brilliant and imaginative' new Agenda Publishing book!

We're delighted to be hosting the launch of Getting Over New Labour next month, where Karl will be in conversation with Hannah Al-Othman. Find out more and book your place⬇️
