“‘I joined LDBEN because it gives me an opportunity to influence more directly the thinking and inputs into the Party’s vision and actions around the themes of economic growth, industrial regeneration and green businesses. It is also a forum in which like-minded people from multiple backgrounds can meet, learn from each other as well as support the party financially.’”
