The 2024 Roskill Lecture, titled 'The Changing Culture in British Politics’, will be delivered by Rt Hon Harriet Harman KC MP.

In this twentieth Roskill Memorial lecture, the Mother of the House will set out the agenda for the new government for modernising Parliament.

The Roskill lecture will take place in the Wolfson Lecture Theatre at 5:30pm and will be followed by a drinks reception. The event is free and open to all.

Harriet Harman KC MP is Mother of the House of Commons, the UK’s longest serving woman MP. She has represented the diverse inner-city constituency of Camberwell and Peckham since 1982.
