Guests on the panel this evening are:
- Simon Hart MP, Secretary of State for Wales, Conservative
- Jess Phillips MP, Shadow Minister for Domestic Violence and Safeguarding, Labour
- Daisy Cooper MP, Deputy Leader of the Liberal Democrats and the party’s spokesperson on Health, Wellbeing and Social Care, Liberal Democrat
- Danny Sriskandarajah, Chief Executive of Oxfam UK
- Isabel Oakeshott, GB News presenter and commentator
Welcoming the programme to Theatre Severn, Cecilia Motley, Shropshire Council’s Cabinet member for communities, culture, leisure and tourism, and transport, said:
“We are delighted to welcome Question Time back to the county and to share the fabulous facilities we have at Theatre Severn.
“I hope they enjoy a lively debate and will be inspired to return.”
