Branch Speakers and Discussions

The Branch has had a number of excellent speakers at our monthly meetings so far this year.

In February we had a discussion on the merits and de-merits of AV voting, led by Branch member Roger Wood; in March, a lively talk entitled "The Watergate Babies" on American politics was given by David Morgan of Milton Keynes. In April, a sombre discussion on the recent Tory cuts was led by Willy Bach. In June there was a thought provoking session on Climate Change, introduced by David Gair.

Branch members also attended a Constituency meeting in June to discuss the document "Refounding Labour" and send our Branch and Constituency views to the National Executive of the Party.

The Branch has further speakers lined up for Autumn meetings, on aspects of Housing and Education.
