| A year in Westminster: John Crace and Marina Hyde | | | Join the Guardian’s Marina Hyde and John Crace, with the political editor Pippa Crerar, live in London and via the livestream, as they look back on the year in Westminster. From Suella Braverman’s asylum policy (a “symposium of stupidity”) to the government’s plan to “let Rishi be Rishi” (“the best the UK can be offered is a sort of end-of-country care"), Hyde and Crace have had a front-row seats for the political events of the year. And that’s not to mention the Musk vs Zuckerberg “megarich-weirdo cage fight” story, the coronation of King Charles and Matt Hancock’s Barbie-inspired TikTok video. This is your chance to hear from some of the Guardian’s best-loved political commentators, as they give their unique takes on the biggest stories of 2023, and to ask them your own questions. | Monday 11 December, 8pm–9.30pm GMT | Book tickets | | Kwame Kwei-Armah: Why Black British culture matters | | | As part of the Guardian’s Black History Month activity, join director and writer Kwame Kwei-Armah for a livestreamed event celebrating the importance of Black British culture.
