CP4G Conference

The Changing Politics for Good #CP4G conference was hosted by former Brexit Party MEPs for the North West, Claire Fox and Henrik Overgaard-Nielsen. It took place in Stockport on 29th February 2020. 

The aim of the conference was to discuss the contemporary issues we face, as a nation, in the regions, and in our communities and the ways in which the radical promise of Brexit can continue to influence politics. This cross-party, one-day conference was a huge success, bringing panellists from across the political spectrum to kickstart public conversations on how Brexit can be a catalyst to Change Politics For Good.

Claire, Henrik, and the whole team who helped organise would like to thank you to everyone who attended the CP4G conference, we could not have done it without you.
