| Paul Hooper-Keeley with Michael Fabricant MP at Lichfield Business Connect |
A big thank you to Michael Fabricant MP who gave a humorous and very engaging talk and Q&A session at the Lichfield Business Connect breakfast meeting this morning.
He talked through his career, including a short-lived stint on a pirate radio ship followed by a career in business selling TV/telecommunications kit around the world.
The Q&A session was lively, with Michael being very honest in giving his opinions on other major politicians (Chatham house rules apply, so I can divulge nothing more) as well as his opposition to HS2 (due to the original Labour plans being adopted rather than the alternate plan that the Conservative team's consultants had devised which was £8bn cheaper and didn't require so much of the countryside being carved up).
He reaffirmed his great support for the business community and, of course, gave us his thoughts on the forthcoming general election.
A very good session indeed from that rare breed of politician who has both had a job outside of politics and actually answers the questions he's asked with no hesitation or flannel.
