In the Loop

The club has been formed with Social Affairs at its heart, there will be occasional screening of films that would not normally be seen locally. The aim of the club is to get the audience talking, discussing and arguing with a range of subjects covering Green issues, Politics, International issues, Cultural issues. Recent discussions and screening have included Cathy Come Home, The Power of the Community; How Cuba Survived Peak Oil and We’re Not Broke.See full list of films via Eventbrite, where you can also register for each Discussion Group. Or see the Eventbrite calendar below.Note the Social Affairs Discussion Group club is for members only, so sign up as a member below, and pay your £2 membership fee at your first visit. There is not a charge for each Discussion Group but we will be passing the hat around at each film showing to cover costs. New Oriel Hall is letting us have the room for free but it is felt that some of the money raised should go back into the Hall coffers to help with its running costs.

The New Oriel Hall Social Affairs Discussion Group

A political satire about a group of skeptical American and British operatives attempting to prevent a war between two countries

New Oriel Hall

<p>During an interview, British Cabinet Minister Simon Foster (Tom Hollander) delivers an off-the-cuff remark that war in the Middle East is unforeseeable. Profane political spin doctor Malcolm Tucker (Peter Capaldi) tries to cover up Foster's faux pas, but the ill-conceived comment is picked up by a warmongering American official. Foster is invited to Washington, D.C., where a war of words brews as politicians maneuver, manipulate and deceive each other before a U.N. vote on military action.</p>
