In other words you're looking for people who will work for nothing. To be expected from the liberal left known for the tightness of their wallets

Is Katy Hopkins coming?

Hello. Hello. Not to work for free! To volunteer so they can see some talks, get a free book and some food. It�s not obligatory and the festival is politically neutral.

Also, Hello, Peter Hitchens, who is on the programme, is not usually considered by many to be liberal or left-wing. At least in the UK!

And nor is Katie Hopkins! I haven�t come across many people who consider her dangerously left-wing or liberal.

Just another black economy job. Just like the Depot.

@[email protected] So you're looking for volunteers to come to the festival, get their travel paid, be given a free book and get fed and have to do nothing in return.
Yeah all right.
If it'\s true I'll expect all those who are buying a 70 quid ticket to change their mind and be a volunteer.
No one said your speakers are all lefties the remark was aimed elsewhere though you don't seem to have noticed.
Wonder if rent a mob & gob will be gathering this year to bully and intimidate Hitchens

I think the idea is that Mark is giving people the opportunity to attend the festival in return for helping out.
It�s not really that complicated is it?

Oh dear, maybe you should have paid Marc Rattray instead of releasing his eagerness on us.

I get a feeling we're dealing with those nice 'internationalist' Remainers here. 'Oh no, I couldn't possibly be exploiting people because I'm so nice.'

Nana says " What a load of old sh@t " apart from Peter Hitchens.

Bit weird that nowhere on the website for the festival does it say the name of the company or organisation that's actually running the thing. If I was forking out �75 for a ticket I'd want a name and address to contact if anything went wrong somewhere along the line.
