Meet the Brexit experts in the Dordogne
A former international trade negotiator – and social media celebrity – is joining the British Community Committee of France (BCC) for an afternoon of talks about Brexit.
Jason Hunter, who gave up his job to focus on speaking about Brexit, and BCC vice-president Christopher Chantrey will be looking at where we go from here with regard to Brexit and Britons’ rights.
Mr Hunter is known to many as one of the ‘Three blokes in a pub’, who chat about Brexit on the internet – despite the name, he is said to have a comprehensive knowledge of international relations, having had a career negotiating deals worth billions.
Mr Chantrey has taken a leading role on Brexit issues at BCC, one of the main French groups in the British in Europe coalition and which represents many British associations around France.
The ‘Meet the Experts’ event is being organised by BCC on March 1 at 14.00 to 18.00 at The Agora in Boulazac, and tickets are €11.85. More information at this link.
