In conversation with David Miliband – Up, Close and Personal: Perspectives on UK-China Relations


Venue: Burton Room, Institute of Directors

Sonny Leong, Chair of Chinese for Labour will be chairing the above event where the speaker is The Rt Hon David Miliband MP, Shadow Foreign Secretary and Labour Party Leadership candidate.


This is an open event organised by the Chinese for Labour Group, which is free to attend by members and non members. Chinese for Labour promotes the interests of Chinese people within the Labour Party to improve the quality of life and representation of the Chinese community in Britain.


David will speak on UK’s relationship with China, the importance of this relationship and why the coalition government is wrong in its approach. He values the importance of the Chinese community’s contribution to UK, and if elected as leader of the Labour Party will work closely with the community to ensure their voice is heard.


He is confident that the first MP of Chinese origin in Britain will be under a Labour Party banner and is determined to build a broad and deep Chinese representation starting in local government and then getting candidates to run for winnable seats in Westminster elections.


This is a “not to be missed” event and an opportunity for you to put forward questions to David. We are expecting huge press media and TV attendance, so please book early to ensure you secure a place.


The event is FREE and open to all, you are invited to bring along THREE friends, please email info@chineseforlabour.org giving your and guests’ names.


We are looking forward to a good turnout for the event with David making a pledge to the community, that if elected as leader, will commit to regular meetings and working with the community.
