CAMRA will be holding a Mass Lobby Day in Westminster, London on Tuesday 30th October 2018. This will be our opportunity to bring pressing campaign issues to the attention of up to 650 Members of Parliament (MPs) The purpose of the Lobby Day will be to ask MPs to commit to the following CAMRA campaigns:  Axing plans to increase beer duty in the upcoming Autumn Budget (UK)  A permanent business rate relief for pubs in the upcoming Autumn Budget (England)  An urgent review of the Pubs Code so that the Market Rent Only option becomes a genuine choice for tenants (England and Wales) We can nominate up to two members per constituency within the branch to attend the lobby day. Members will need to be able to communicate our campaigns effectively, feel confident in speaking to MPs, be presentable and a positive ambassador for CAMRA, and be able to give up their day to travel to London to take part. They will also need to be willing to liaise with other member(s) attending from their constituency over e-mail if there is more than one member attending. Members will need to arrange a meeting with their MP or an MPs staff member ahead of the Lobby Day. This is essential, and if a meeting has not been pre-arranged our advice is not to travel to London as there is no guarantee a meeting can be arranged on the day. In this case expenses will not be met.
