● VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

In August we will have a debate "That Britain should leave the European Union". This debate was arranged when members were enthusiastic about Steve Reynold's suggestion. Now it is time for some enthusiastic volunteering - either to speak in favour, or against; whether willing to give a pre-prepared topic, or happy to give a short impromptu contribution from the floor. It is a subject that affects us all and one that we might have to decide on in a national referendum. So don't be afraid to nail your colours to the mast one way or another. Most parties are split on the issue, so it is not really political. And at the end of the day, it is really an exercise in how well we can express our views in public, and how well we can marshall arguments for or against.
So don't be shy - let's have lots of volunteers!
Just contact Walter Mason.

● MORE VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
Researchers at Manchester University are looking for volunteers for a research project.
