Show 286 - *Joanna Cherry - LIVE at the Edinburgh Festival*

One of UK politics' most formidable talents shares her unique experience of modern politics. Whether it's leading the legal battles against Parliament's unlawful prorogation, or speaking up for the rights of women, Joanna is someone speaks from the heart and the head. Her views on sex-based rights have proven controversial in her own party and she talks movingly about the reaction of some of her colleagues and the lack of support she's received in the face of abuse. This is a thoughtful, considered and candid hour.   Buy tickets to Matt's completely rewritten stand-up show Clowns To The Left Of Me, Jokers to the Right at The Edinburgh Festival here and his new London dates here: https://www.mattforde.com/2022tour Tuesday 18 October: Leicester Square TheatreFriday 21 October: Bloomsbury TheatreFriday 28 October: Bloomsbury Theatre Forthcoming guests at The Political Party include: 19 Sept: Emily Maitlis and Jon Sopel3 Oct: Mick Lynch17 Oct: Matt Hancock7 Nov: David Dimbleby5 Dec: Rachel Reeves Tickets: https://nimaxtheatres.com/shows/the-political-party-with-matt-forde/ Email the show: [email protected] Follow Matt on Twitter: @mattforde  Hosted on Acast.
