Sarah Montague

Sarah Anne Louise Montague, Lady Brooke (born 8 February 1966),[1] is a British journalist and presenter of the BBC Radio 4 current affairs programme The World at One.

After attending Blanchelande College, a local independent school for girls, she read biology at the University of Bristol, gaining a BSc.

The 2008 Nobel Prize winners in Physics, Chemistry, Medicine, Economics, and Literature had a round-table discussion on issues of global concern and their own contributions to the world of knowledge.

[11] After 18 years, she left Radio 4's flagship current affairs programme in April 2018 to take over the lead on the lunchtime news broadcast The World at One from Martha Kearney.

[17][18] In 2018, she was criticised for misattributing the Electoral Commission's findings that the Vote Leave campaign broke the law in the 2016 referendum, thereby protecting several government ministers from pressure to resign.

She repeatedly referred to “these allegations”, when they were, in fact, the findings of the statutory body charged with protecting the 2016 referendum and the integrity of UK elections.
