Dawn Butler is the trailblazing Labour MP for Brent Central, best known for speaking truth to power. In 2021, she was famously ejected from the House of Commons for calling Boris Johnson a liar, and her tireless campaigning to eradicate injustice, from the Met Police to the NHS, has changed lives. But until now, she's never talked openly about what has inspired and motivated her to persevere in the face of oppression.
Drawing on lessons from her own life, Dawn shows how traditional routes to success and power are outdated and reveals that it's easier than we think to disrupt a broken system. From Butlers Bakery to the Palace of Westminster, she shares the values, people, places and beliefs that have helped her to forge her own authentic path to power. As the third Black woman ever to be elected as an MP, and the first elected African-Caribbean woman to become a Government Minister, Dawn is a true pioneer.
Now she is on a mission to give others the courage and conviction to dream big and make positive change, even when everything feels broken around us.
