The University of Buckingham will host a hustings event for Buckingham and Bletchley General Election candidates next week.
The event will take place in the Vinson Building Auditorium on Thursday, 27 June, from 6-7 pm.
This event is open to all, offering a valuable opportunity for voters to hear directly from the candidates on the issues that matter most.
Candidates will present their policy statements before opening the floor to questions from the audience. This is your chance to engage with the candidates and get answers to your pressing questions.
Professor James Tooley said, "We are pleased to be able to host and offer this opportunity for local people to meet candidates. It will be a great opportunity to visit the university and hear from those hoping to be elected this year. For local people who haven't been to the university for a while, or even ever, this is a great time to visit us at the Vinson Building – we look forward to welcoming you."
The candidates attending are:
Amanda Onwuemene (Green Party)
Callum Anderson (Labour)
Ray Brady (Independent)
Jordan Cattell (Reform)
Iain Stewart (Conservative)
Dominic Dyer (Liberal Democrats)
Questions are welcome in advance and are requested to be sent to vc-office@buckingham.ac.uk understanding that it may not be possible to accommodate them all.
