EU referendum - What does Lutterworth think?

On Saturday, April 9th, Lutterworth BLP held a coffee morning at the Town Hall. Shoppers were invited for a cup of coffee and to chat about their feelings on the EU referendum. Many people were keen to join in the debate, and there was a lot of interest and discussion! People were asked to "vote" for "in", "out" or "not sure" by means of ping-pong balls dropped into 3 glass jars.

At the end of the morning the results looked pretty similar to the national ones - more "in" than "out", but by a relatively small margin, and still quite a number of people "not sure". So there is lots of debating left to do, to help people come to their decision and make the best choice!

Lutterworth BLP supports the "In" vote, but we were glad to give out information and chat to passers-by to help them decide which way they will vote in June!

Labour Folk Evening at Fleckney

On Friday 8th April we had great entertainment from many Leicester folk singers. It was a great evening, hosted by Nic Burnett at his Linic plastics factory in Fleckney - a mega-interesting venue! There were lots of acts from local musicians, enjoyed by an audience of over 70 people. As well as a good night out, funds were raised for the Labour Party. Many thanks to all who contributed to make this such a successful event.

Willy Bach, Labour PCC candidate said a few words about the campaign, and we all wished him the best of luck in the remaining few weeks to May 5th!
