Thanks to all who came to the event today, it was a fantastic success. Mr Speaker was brilliant, we very much enjoyed his short talk about Government and his patience in answering questions, at times with some good anecdotes. For more information about what happened at the event, please head over to the blog site where there are summaries that were written during the event.
