After an introduction from local campaigners, Andrew will speak followed by a Q&A session chaired by Sam Hickmott, Chair of Bristol for Europe, who said: "Lord Adonis is one of the most eloquent and passionate opponents of Brexit and we are delighted that he is coming to Bristol to help us keep up the pressure for a People’s Vote.”

Andrew will be joined at the event by Will Hutton, his co-author of “Them and Us: Changing Britain – Why We Need a Fair Society” and long time passionate advocate of EU membership.
