Nick Clegg Public Meeting in York
(Thursday, October 30, 2008)

Meeting type:Private meeting
Date:Thursday, October 30, 2008
Time:6.45pm - 7.45pm
Description: Most people I meet feel cut off from politics – left out or even ignored most of the time. They don’t have a voice to influence what happens in our country. I’m determined to do everything I can to change that. Since I became leader of the Liberal Democrats, I’ve held public meetings up and down the country where I meet ordinary people and families for an open discussion. No scripted questions, no pre-prepared answers – just a frank talk between me and local people about issues, problems, and how we can solve them. 

It’s no use politicians waiting in Westminster and assuming they know everything. If you want to understand how things like the credit crunch really affect people, you’ve got to be out meeting people and listening.

I will be in York on the 30th October to host a debate on matters to you. I look forward to seeing you there.

Nick  The public meetings are a great way to do that - to keep in touch with what matters to real people, outside the Westminster bubble, so I can campaign on it and make a difference. Politics is so often about schoolboy fighting in the House of Commons – and far too little about listening. These meetings are about doing things differently, so that I can champion the causes that people really care about. I hope to see you there.
