A scientist by background, he has spent the years since the 2016 referendum building grassroots organisations and campaigns to rebuild Britain’s relationship with Europe. He writes and speaks widely on UK-EU relations, geopolitics and community-led campaigning."With the next general election on the horizon, the pressure is on for every party to say where it actually stands on Europe - and critically - their positions on joining the EU. Mike Galsworthy, Chair of European Movement UK, sets out what “targeting the manifestos” really means in practice: how to seize this moment between now and the next General Election to pin down political party commitments for the next parliament and very specifically - get a public mandate at that vote for opening accession talks for full EU membership. The movement needs a target for campaigning. The next general election is that pivot point, but there are a lot of gear wheels that interact with it. Mike will cover how ordinary campaigners and local groups can not only make sure their MPs and candidates hear it, but also create the environment that move parties as a whole." Talk followed by extended Q&A.Following the Q&A, there will be a short time to socialise with Mike and fellow members over light refreshments.PLEASE NOTE: The venue is at Truro School Prep Assembly Hall, Highertown, near Treliske Hospital.
