About This Event

It is one of the most distinctive features of our parliamentary process, but have you ever wondered what on earth is going on at Prime Minister’s Questions? Join Times Radio presenter Hugo Rifkind and Westminster insiders Patrick Maguire and Ayesha Hazarika as they pause the action live from the House of Commons to explain all. Famous for its noisy and robust atmosphere, PMQs take place every Wednesday at noon when the House of Commons is sitting, providing MPs the opportunity to question the Prime Minister directly about government business and this week’s session is the first after the party conference season. This event is being broadcast. Arrive by 11.45am to be seated. Get ahead of your Festival reading and visit the Waterstones Cheltenham Literature Festival bookshop and support Cheltenham Festivals with every purchase.
