Embattled Labour leader will appear in conversation with the Booker prize-winning novelist in London, despite the event falling in the middle of multiple leadership challenges
Jeremy Corbyn is due to take time out from the Labour party’s internal wranglings to discuss the state of the world and the potential for positive change with the Nigerian novelist Ben Okri.
