MNQ's - Would you like to join other MNers for a Q&A with the Deputy Prime Minister?

28 replies

Hello,

We're going to be holding a live, in-person Q&A session with the Deputy Prime Minister, Nick Clegg, on March 25 between 12.45 and 2pm.

The audience will be solely composed of Mumsnetters. There's a possibility that it will be filmed for broadcast, so you'd need to be comfortable with that - and for security reasons audience members will need to be accredited in advance.

The venue will be confirmed to the guests nearer the time, but it will be in central London (apologies - we know this is annoying for those of you who aren't in the south-east).

If you want to know where the DPM stands on all the issues, please do add your name to this thread. If you filled out our election survey and gave your contact details we might contact you via email as well.

Thanks

@crappyday

Is he too scared to do a webchat? Wink

Very much hoping he'll do one of them, too!

@jonicomelately

I'll do it. I'm not in the SE though so it would have to be on a day I can arrange childcare.

Thanks Joni - it will be on March 25 between 12.45 and 2pm - let us know if you think you can make it.

@BathshebaDarkstone

Would an "I think that's ok" do? I need to be able to get back to school for 3.15. Smile

Should be OK - if you think you can get back to where you need to be from central London in time? It should finish at 2pm.

I'm guessing no toddlers? I'd do it if I could bring him too.

Oh go on then... Does he hold strong views? Grin

@UnbelievableBollocks

Yes, I have a whole host of questions to ask him. I'd need to know soonish if I'm coming though as London is a bit of a schlepp.

Consider yourself on the list!

OK folks - can you purleese all check your emails if you haven't already - we need to have confirmation of your real-life full names ASAP (and by the end of the working day today) so that the security people can run the rule over you! Please remember to check the email address that you used when registering with MN as that's the one we'll have used.

(If you've already seen and replied to our mail, do ignore us)

Thanks!
