Rutland and Melton Conservatives are staging an online Zoom meeting with leading Tory Steve Baker MP.

MP Alicia Kearns said on twitter: "Sign up! I'm pleased to launch a new series of events for Conservatives in Rutland & Melton (and beyond!).

"Spend an evening in discussion with some of my incredible colleagues.

"First up the indefatigable, passionate and always generous @SteveBakerHW "

The Wycombe MP is former chairman of the pro-Brexit European Research Group and now a leading member of the Covid Recovery group and has spoken out against the government's lockdown policies.

A post on the Rutland and Melton Conservatives website said: "Steve will be discussing with us the ERG, Brexit and current Government policies and this will be followed by a question and answer session."

Tickets for the event are £10 per household or £8 per household for Young Conservatives and can be purchased by clicking 'Buy Now' on the association website.

Questions should be sent to [email protected] and the association will try and get through as many of them as possible during the time with Mr Baker.
