Alan Murphy
and David Davis

Mr Davis was the UK’s Brexit secretary from 13 July 2016 until 8 July 2018, when he resigned over differences with the Prime Minister’s Brexit plan.

Managing partner Alan Murphy, introducing Mr Davis, told the event: “For me, an essential part of bringing others with us is to listen to their views because if we only surround ourselves with like-minded people, we will always inevitably arrive at the same decision. And that decision will not be one of compromise and usually will not lead to a solution.

“So, that is why I am very much looking forward to hearing the views of our guest speaker. We may not necessarily agree with them but all the more reason to listen.”
