Croydon Constitutionalists September Meetup and latest news
A conversation with Joanna Marchong of the TaxPayers’ Alliance, an update on the Freedom Association campaign day in Epsom plus latest podcasts.
You are warmly invited to join us upstairs at Whispers, 5 High St, Purley CR8 2AF on Wednesday 18th September at 7pm.
The TaxPayers’ Alliance (TPA) was setup to speak for ordinary taxpayers fed up with government waste, increasing taxation, and a lack of transparency in all levels of government. Locally the TPA has campaigned with us to highlight some of the disastrous policies of Croydon Council.
Join us for our drinks and conversation with Joanna Marchong the Investigations Campaign Manager at the TPA. We will discuss her role, the work of the TPA, and upcoming concerns for taxpayers.
