| | | Shami Chakrabarti: Defending human rights | | | | | | In her new book, Human Rights, leading British lawyer and campaigner Shami Chakrabarti outlines the historic struggles for human rights.

| | | Wes Streeting MP and Pippa Crerar: Live in London | | | | | | Wes Streeting will be in conversation with Guardian political editor Pippa Crerar, live in London and livestreamed.
Opinion polls suggest that Labour are on course to win the general elections later this year. If they do, Streeting would occupy one of the biggest jobs in the cabinet. He would inherit a chronically underfunded health service, and his party will face many urgent issues, from the cost of living crisis to the climate emergency. At this special event, Streeting will set out his vision for a reformed NHS, as well as Labour’s wider plans for the country. He’ll also be answering some of your questions. | | Wednesday 5 June 2024, 7.30pm-9pm BST | | Book tickets |
