Sensemaker Live – The Royals: are we done with the dynasty?

Sensemaker Live – The Royals: are we done with the dynasty?

This event is exclusive to Friends of Tortoise

Sensemaker Live is in partnership with Santander

In the Roundhead corner, Monty Python rejects lying in ponds and distributing swords as the basis for a system of government. For the Cavaliers, Piers Morgan shouts over Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu that he’s not going to let her “trash the Queen”. And in the middle?
