A video of our Nanny State of the Nation webinar is now online.

The meeting began with contributions from four guest speakers:

Baroness Bennett, leader of The Green Party, 2012-2016 (speaking from a roadside in France); former MSP and MEP Brian Monteith; Tam Fry, spokesman, National Obesity Forum; and Claire Fox, director, Academy of Ideas.

We encourage audience participation so things got quite lively when other attendees were invited to have their say.

If you haven't got the time (or inclination) to watch the webinar in full, I would recommend that you at least watch the contribution from Pat Nurse (which starts at 46:46).

PS. Here’s some of the feedback we received on the night:

Thanks for a great event. Great contributions from all the speakers and the audience.

Big thanks especially to Natalie and Tam. Not many who disagree with us will be brave enough to talk to us.

Thanks for a great event :)

Well done to Natalie and Tam for engaging.

Thank you to organisers and participants.

Great night. Lovely guests.
