Former Prime Minister returning to Salisbury

Tuesday, 30 January 2024 00:00

Former Prime Minister Theresa May is to return to Salisbury this March to deliver a talk.

As Prime Minister for three years and Home Secretary for six years, Theresa May came face-to-face with a series of issues in which the abuse of power led to devastating results for individuals and significantly damaged the reputation of, and trust in, public institutions and politicians.

Theresa will give an inside-the-room account of several cases in domestic and international affairs where blatant abuses took place – including the Salisbury poisonings, which took place six years ago.

The event takes place on Monday, 11th March, at Salisbury's Guildhall, with a drinks reception from 7 pm; the talk starts at 7:30 pm, followed by a Q&A session.

Edward Bickham, Trustee of The Edward Heath Charitable Foundation, said "Theresa May's dedication to public service, unwavering patriotism, and integrity have been an inspiration to many. It's a privilege to welcome her back to Salisbury. "
