General Election candidates from across Coventry and Warwickshire got the chance to tell businesses what they will do for them ahead of the general election. FSB joined forces with the Coventry and Warwickshire Chamber of Commerce to organise a general election lunch with 14 prospective MPs and business leaders. Candidates from across a range of constituencies from the Conservative, Green, Labour, Liberal Democrat and UKIP parties attended and talked to around 80 business people about everything from Brexit to apprentices. One candidate from each party was given the opportunity to speak for five minutes on their party’s manifesto before they spoke to companies individually in a round table format. The event was concluded with a question and answer session which allowed firms to raise further issues with prospective Parliamentarians.
