Richard Burgon MP represents Leeds East. He’s also a key member of Jeremy Corbyn’s economic team and he’s the special guest at this year’s Burns Night celebration in Beverley.
Speaking about the event, Beverley Labour’s George McManus said;
“We’re delighted that Richard is coming to this year’s event. Richard is a rising star in Labour’s team and has been a key supporter of Jeremy Corbyn.”
He went on,
“However, Burns Night is a celebration of Robert Burns. Whilst all proceeds go to the Labour Party, its not about politics.”
“We’ll have bagpipes, haggis and a ceilidh so supporters and non supporters are welcome to what promises to be a great night out.”
This year’s event will be on Saturday 23 January at the Memorial Hall in Beverley.
Tickets are available from Judy Dickinson on 01964 542593 and cost £25.
Sounds great! Could just do with Kim Jong-Il to round it off.
