About this Event
When (former) Prince Andrew was arrested in February for ‘misconduct in public office’ every front page was emblazoned with his picture, sloping in the back of a car, looking ashen. Just days later, Peter Mandelson was arrested for the same obscure offence. But, what exactly happened, how did the unprecedented arrests occur and what exactly IS ‘misconduct in public office’?
In this first of a series about the ‘Law in Action’, hear from Sir Robert Buckland KC, the former Lord Chancellor, who knows how laws are made, Sam McAlister, the former BBC journalist who negotiated the interview that led to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s eventual arrest.
An exceptional chance to hear from the people who make the law, challenge the law and those who chase the people who (allegedly) break it.
