What a great evening it was! Thank you very much to Ben Habib and his son Max for joining us in Newcastle. It was fascinating listening to Ben speak on current affairs. Having recently created his own party called Advance UK, it continues to excel, boasting membership numbers of well above 30,000 people. As many would argue that Reform UK are increasingly becoming part of the establishment, Ben’s Advance UK offers a new and fresh approach. Regardless of your political persuasions, Ben is a serous political operator and phenomenal communicator. We were especially blessed given that Ben and Max travelled to and from Newcastle in the same day (from London). Thank you to Ben and all the best with your Advance UK going forward!

Welcome everybody to the second semester. We hope you had a great Christmas break and very successful exam period. We will be kicking off the semester with our first meeting next week on Thursday (5th of February) in the Junction pub and it will be an informal catchup. Furthermore on Thursday 12th of February we will have our first PINT and POLICY meeting again at 7pm at Junction pub.
We look forward seeing you!

This account will be reverting back to ‘The Conservative Society’ from ‘The Conservative and Reform Society’ temporarily as we sort out ratification for our name change. We believe that having Conservative and Reform in our name allows us to have larger, more enjoyable set up. Half our members are Tory oriented and half are Reform. We passionately believe that having both labels, with no affiliation with the parties, gives us the best chance to create a safe space for students on the right of politics to discuss and debate ideas. We are hoping that the Student Union accepts this decision - an EGM date will be sent out to members in due course about the current situation; it will likely be two weeks on Thursday (as suggested in the constitution with a minimum of two weeks notice to members). In the meantime this Instagram will revert back to the previous name of The Conservative Society - this will be done within the next 24hrs

It was a privilege to welcome Diego and his Neos team to the Northern Counties Club. We learnt a huge amount about the struggle Venezuelians face, and that there is, thankfully, some optimism that things will soon get better. The VR headset was a particular highlight, showing the horrors of the prison system. Thank you again!

TICKETS REQUIRED: This coming Friday at 7pm, we’ll be hosting one of our biggest events of the year at the Northern Counties Club (just off Grey Street). The dress code is business attire (jackets are mandatory for gents; no jeans). Entry is free, and while food will not be provided, drinks will be available for purchase at the bar.
The evening will feature a discussion on the importance of preserving democracy, with the participation of human rights activists from Venezuela who are working to expose how socialist regimes systematically dismantle fundamental rights and freedoms.
Venezuela - once a prosperous democracy - now stands as a sobering example of how authoritarian socialism can erode democratic institutions and civil liberties. These activists have spoken at prestigious international forums, including the United States Congress, Spanish Congress, Italian Senate, and leading European universities - and now they return to Newcastle, where one of their members proudly studied.
As numbers are limited, please RSVP by emailing [email protected] if you’d like to attend.

While tickets haven't been released just yet, if you are wanting to purchase one, please email [email protected] to save you a spot. Thanks
