Webchat with Anna Soubry on Brexit and beyond - Tuesday 22 January at 10.30am

[BojanaMumsnet]

Hello

We’re pleased to announce a webchat with Anna Soubry MP to discuss all things Brexit. Anna was a Remain campaigner and currently supports calls for a second referendum. Anna made headlines a couple of weeks ago when she was harassed outside Parliament and urged the police to take more action.

Anna has been the Conservative MP for Broxtowe since the 2010 General Election. After more than a year attending Cabinet as Minister of State for Small Business, Anna chose to return to the backbenches in July 2016, be able to represent her views on the “positive benefits of immigration and the EU.”

Please do join the chat on Tuesday at 10.30am, or if you can’t make it, leave a question here in advance.

We’re expecting this to be a busy webchat, so only existing Mumsnet users are able to post on this thread.

As always, please remember our webchat guidelines - one question per user, follow-ups only if there’s time and most questions have been answered and please keep it civil. Also if one topic is overwhelmingly dominating a discussion with a guest, mods might request that people don't continue to post what's effectively the same question or point. Rest assured we will ALWAYS let the guest know that it's an area of concern to multiple users and will encourage them to engage with those questions.

And finally - we did have a pro-Brexit webchat guest lined up for this week (Jacob Rees Mogg) but they cancelled on us so we’re trying to line up a replacement as we speak.

Many thanks.

A follow up if there's time-

Is the Cooper/Grieve bill/amendment scheduled into the Parliamentary timetable for a vote? How can we be sure it will be?

Thanks, will understand if you don't have time to answer this one.

Thanks everyone for all your excellent questions! Thanks Mumsnet for everything you do. My only complaint is that you've made me eat biscuits throughout our session (they were good tho - but no ginger nuts...) Happy to come back anytime for another griling.

Big thanks to Anna and to everyone who participated in this chat. We're going to close it now to avoid confusion. Very much hope it was helpful and enlightening. We'll no doubt be having more Brexit related chats soon so we can hear from all sides of the debate.

Thank you Anna
