Thank you Andrew and Jane!
Andrew drew on his wealth of experience as a former MP and current Member of the House of Lords to give us an insider’s perspective on UK political life and how to think more broadly about Parliament’s power. It was great to have students from Nuffield and across the University, as well as Alumni.
