Two weeks in! This week we’re looking forward to the OUFF Cuppers Launch on Friday, to Uncomfortable Oxford’s Walking Tour on Saturday, and a whole range of events in-between from talks with human rights lawyers to discussions of the pandemic to serious and not-so-serious discussion, with the return of Rum and Realpolitik.
