Diane Abbott: A Woman Like Me
Diane Abbott: A Woman Like Me
6.30pm, Thursday 30th of January, Conduit Covent Garden
Networking Drinks from 6pm. Complimentary drinks for the first 20 arrivals.
Diane Abbott is a history-maker. From challenging expectations as a bright and restless child of the Windrush generation to becoming the first elected Black female MP in the UK.
We are incredibly honoured to be welcoming Diane, the mother of the House (the longest uninterrupted female MP) to The Trouble Club to discuss her outstanding life of service.
Ever since the day she first walked through the House of Commons as the first Black woman MP, she has been a fearless and vocal champion for the causes that have made Britain what it is today, whether it’s increasing access to education for Black children and speaking out against the Iraq war or advocating tirelessly for refugees and immigrants.
A unique figure in British public life, Diane has often had nothing but the courage of her convictions to carry her through incredibly hostile environments, from torrential abuse in the mainstream media and on social media, to being shunned by the political establishment, including by her own party.
Join us for an intimate evening with one of the most influential politicians in British history.
