However, there is talk set amongst all the music and song.

This RSA Fellow supported event runs from 12.00 to 21.00 in Hylands Park on Saturday 4th July. Adults only. Tickets from £22,  There are over 300 performers in the programme including live music and cabaret.
Malcolm Noble FRSA, the Fellowship regional Chair, is leading a debate in the Provocative Forum tent. The motions being debated include:
  • Who cares if the Scots go for independence?
  • The UK needs to leave the EU now.
  • What’s wrong with a Tory government anyway?
  • Who needs Human Rights?
  • The only way is austerity.

Nothing contentious there then? Looking forward to a great day!
