This House Believes the Monarchy’s Time is Up
Thursday 8th May
8.00pm
The Cambridge Union
Eighty-five years on from VE Day, an occasion famously remembered for Winston Churchill’s Buckingham Palace balcony appearance with King George VI, we find ourselves debating the future of the monarchy in 21st Century Britain. Given its deep roots in British and global society, we aim to consider both the role of the monarchy as an institution alongside its place in shaping national identity.
Prop:
The Rt. Hon. The Baroness Bennett
Peter Tatchell

Opp:
The Rt. Hon Sir John Hayes CBE MP
