Malcolm Rifkind at Edinburgh International Book Festival

As the longest serving minister of the 20th century, Defence Minister and Foreign Secretary in Thatcher’s government and more recently Chairman of the Intelligence Committee, Malcolm Rifkind has witnessed the monumental political moments of recent times. He joins us to share the highs and lows of his astonishing career, as recounted in his serious, funny and self-deprecating memoir, Power and Pragmatism.
