CHANGE: HOW? A Decade of Radical Renewal

Ministry of Sound • 103 Gaunt Street • SE1 6DP GB

Last summer saw Labour returned to government with the promise of ‘a decade of national renewal’.

But what exactly would and should national renewal look like?

With right-wing populism on the march at home and abroad, and voters impatient for real change, developing an answer to this question becomes more urgent every day. The stakes could not be higher.

That’s why Compass is thrilled to host CHANGE: HOW? A Decade of Radical Renewal’, a day of debate and discussion about the Labour government’s vision for the future and how we can truly transform our economy, democracy and society. Join us for this event at the Ministry of Sound from 10:00am to 5:00pm on Saturday 31st May.

With the support of a number of partners, and a range of incredible speakers including Greater Manchester Mayor, Andy Burnham, Labour minister and MP for Peckham, Miatta Fahnbulleh, former First Minister of Wales, Mark Drakeford, and MP for Sheffield Heeley, Louise Haigh, we’ll begin to develop a vision of a decade of radical renewal – one that’s transformative, progressive and realisable, and puts us on the path to a Good Society.

Get your ticket today and join us for what promises to be an inspiring and imaginative day of ideas and political debate.
