Ian Frog Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 As an ex MP do you know if Lembit Opik has a role in the new organisation or is he staying put with MAG? I only ask as given his previous job he might be useful. Cheers Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manxie49 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Good to see, especially when organisations are willing to work together. Refreshing to see well organised groups like this willing to support us through representation, give us a voice and make a stand 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
