Roger Helmer MEP talk and dinner
Filed Under Events
On Friday 13th February, NUCA hosted Roger Helmer MEP. Roger, introduced with a talk from Tim Aker (TaxPayers’ Alliance) about a recent stunt regarding the EU’s fishing policy, articulated his personal views on Britain’s membership of the European Union. The speech was very interesting, as one comes to expect from Roger, and a particularly interesting statistic was that the benefits to the UK regarding trade account for just 1.8% of our GDP whereas we pay out 5.5% of our GDP on regulation.
Roger and Tim also joined us for dinner afterwards which was good fun (albeit with a slight delay for the burgers!). All in all it was a very successful event and NUCA thanks the Young Britons’ Foundation once again for the assistance provided in getting a speaker.
