Summary of Food Speculation Meeting Sept 2011
Christine Haigh from national WDM facilitated an informative and interactive evening. This was a joint event with members from both Leeds and Bradford WDM . Two discussion groups took place: one planned for lobbying MEPs and the other had some thought provoking ideas for stunts to raise awareness of the importance of regulating the food industry to reduce speculation which increases hunger and and poverty.
These ideas will be followed up at the October meeting. Join us to finalise campaign plans.

Summary of talk by Ann Cryer former MP for Keighley
In November Bradford WDM was delighted to have a visit from Ann Cryer.
Ann gave us many practical and achievable suggestions on how to more effectively lobby MPs.
Those of us at the meeting felt uplifted and inspired by the talk.
We look forward to putting her ideas into practice in 2011.
