Following the AGMs, Chris Buxton, BFPA CEO chaired a Q&A debate around the fundamental question; “What will Post-Brexit Britain look like for UK manufacturing and distribution?”. The four excellent, high profile panellists were Professor Richard G. Whitman MA PhD FAcSS, (Chair of the British International Studies Association and Senior Research Fellow, Chatham House), John Halford, (Partner at Bindmans LLP Public Law and a legal advisor to the Brexit negotiations), Richard Butler, (CBI Director, West Midlands and Oxfordshire) and Allie Renison, (Policy Unit Economist at the Institute of Directors). With some lively, interesting and informative debate and excellent audience participation, the discussion proved very popular and useful for everyone who attended.
