with Mike Martin MP
SATURDAY FEBRUARY 8, 2024 | 12.30 - 3PM
DEAL TOWN HALL, HIGH STREET, DEAL, CT14 6TR
Our Annual Lunch is taking place on Saturday February 8, 2025 from 12.30 - 3pm. Our speaker will be Mike Martin, our recently elected MP for Tunbridge Wells.
Mike was elected as Member of Parliament (MP) for Tunbridge Wells in July 2024 with 43.6 per cent of the vote. He is the first non-Conservative to win the constituency since it was first contested in February 1974.
Mike describes himself as a pro-European, internationalist, "explicitly pro-green", and is in favour of a strong stance on defence. He is an ex-soldier, military strategist, and author and served multiple tours in Helmand Province during the War in Afghanistan.
He has a degree in biological sciences from the University of Oxford and a Doctor or Philosophy (PhD) degree in war studies from King's College London, which he completed in 2013 with a thesis entitled War on its Head: An Oral History of the Helmandi Conflict 1978-2012. He is also a senior visiting research fellow at King's College London.
Tickets are £37 and include a welcome glass of fizz and a buffet lunch. You can book tickets here.
