We are delighted to be involved with the Festival of Politics again this year with: How to disagree agreeably – an event on 9 August 2023

In an age where conflict culture and manufactured dissent seems to be actively encouraged in politics, the art of debating, listening and learning from the other side has been overshadowed by rancour and adamant polarisation. So, how do we revive the art of critical thinking, recognise the value of the ‘grey area’, and the goal of both parties making a discovery, rather than being right?

Chaired by Liam McArthur MSP, Deputy Presiding Officer, the panellists are; Claire Hanna MP, Sheila Webster and Peter McColl

Tickets and more information can be found on the Festival of Politics website
