Seminar with John Hutton to take place on 16 February 2010


The BPS seminar with John Hutton MP on "After New Labour: Towards a New Era in British Politics?" has been rescheduled.

New time: Tuesday 16 February 2010

Blindern, University of Oslo

The seminar was sadly cancelled last November due to unforseen circumstances.  New invitations will be sent out to friends and members of British Politics Society shortly.

Mr Hutton recently resigned from Gordon Brown's government. He has been an MP for Labour since 1992, and has served as Cabinet Minister in the governments of both Tony Blair and Gordon Brown. In Oslo, he will share his thoughts on New Labour's twelve years in government, the upcoming general elections and the future of British Politics.
