Published

Paul Nuttall MEP will join West Midlands MEP Bill Etheridge at Molineux to discuss issues surrounding EU regionalisation and its effect on the West Midlands.

Mr Etheridge said: "I am very much looking forward to welcoming Paul Nuttall to Wolverhampton.

"I am proud to be Black Country born and bred and I will continue to fight the threat that EU-regionalisation poses.

"Birmingham and the Black Country have their own unique, distinct and proud identities and heritage so I don't want to see these areas swallowed up into a massive 'combined authority'.

"The creation of a combined authority will take democracy further away from the people. I urge people to come along on Monday and hear how the fight is on against this EU regionalisation."

The meeting will take place in the Hayward Suite from 7pm for a 7.30pm start. Entrance is free.
