Which party will form a government at next year’s election? Will Donald Trump succeed in his second bid for the White House? How will the tectonic plates of geopolitics shift in 2024?
We’ll be joined by a distinguished group of leading commentators to tackle these questions and more, sharing their unvarnished reflections on the big stories of 2023 and predictions for what’s in store for 2024.
Revisiting earlier predictions such as whether Twitter would continue to exist and who might be leading the country one year on, together they’ll consider the influences set to shape the global conversation in the year ahead – with a typical measure of both consensus and disagreement assured!
Joining our chair Daniel Finkelstein OBE, Associate Editor of The Times, will be:
- Ayesha Hazarika MBE, Broadcaster and Political Commentator, Times Radio
- Charles Moore, Columnist, The Daily Telegraph and The Spectator
- Alice Thomson, Columnist and Political Interviewer, The Times
- Polly Toynbee, Political and Social Commentator, The Guardian
