Description
• Go here to get tickets for Oh God, What Now? live at the Comedy Store on Tue 10 Dec. Labour’s first budget since regaining power is an opportunity to get back on the front foot and silence its critics on the right. What could Rachel Reeves introduce in this budget, how key is a focus on the NHS going to be, and, importantly, WHO THE HELL does the bins at Buckingham Palace?! Plus, the vote for the Assisted Dying Bill is about 5 weeks away. Some MPs feel there hasn’t been enough time to debate it properly. Wes Streeting won’t back it, nor will Justice Sec Shabana Mahmood. Will Parliament fumble one of the most important decisions it could have to make? Guardian Columnist Polly Toynbee joins the panel to get stuck into all of that.
