As part of the Holywell Trust's Good Relations Week 2018, the Brexit Focus Team hosted a panel discussion titled "Brexit and Community Relations" in the Junction Room of the Holywell Trust Building. Speaking on the panel with Paul and Gerard was Terry Wright, a representative of Civic Unionism; Darren O'Reilly, independent councillor for Derry and Strabane District Council and Maureen Hetherington, Board Member of Community Dialogue. Our panel discuss the findings of the Community Dialogue Report, reasons why citizens did not vote in the EU Withdrawal Referendum and how civic activism can help alleviate the worries of the community during this time of uncertainty. Andrew Adonis, Labour Peer and former Transport Secretary under Tony Blair's Premiership, will be returning to the city on Friday September 28th to deliver a speech on the Irish Border and to meet with local business, civic and youth leaders about their acute concerns. This will be Andrew's second visit in little over a month. On his previous visit he came to the city to promote the People's Vote which he discussed with Paul, exclusively for this Podcast.
