This excellent event with Vicky Ford MEP was held at Ravenwood Hotel, Bury St Edmunds - and was a joint event with West Suffolk Conservative Association. It was very well attended - with a lively 2-way dialogue between Vicky and the members present.
With speculation about a possible EU referendum firmly back in the headlines, Vicky waskeen to hear what party members thought on all matters European. Vicky has been one of the leading MEPs involved in negotiations on keeping the UK out of the consequences of the Eurozone's fiscal compact and in retaining UK sovereignty over banking regulation and supervision.
During the evening many views were expressed and debated - including our members take on a referendum, and also we explored the potential outcomes for the UK in its future relationship with the EU, the Eurozone and the Single Market. We had great fun with Vicky's idea of audience particiapation with each table representing a member state - this has to be seen to be appreciated!
There wasno charge to members for the meeting - and it was felt by all attending that the evening was a great success and we look forward to working in partnership with West Suffolk and other Associations in the future. For those of you who enjoy the Policy part of being a member please get in touch as we are looking to set up a Conservative Policy Forum - this is when we debate key policy issues and views we have are fed back to Oliver Letwin and the Central Party.
