More information on the speakers: 

Pablo O’Hana is a Senior Political Advisor and Campaign Strategist who has worked on some of the most historic campaigns of the last decade, including Kamala Harris’ bid for the White House, Ireland’s referendum on legalising abortion and the UK’s vote on the European Union. He writes for The i, The Independent, Metro, and The Hill and regularly appears on BBC News, Sky News and GB News.

Holly Bissinger is an experienced campaigner for the Liberal Democrats and has helped with numerous elections, particularly across Dorset, but also across the country. She was part of the team that helped strategise and achieve such success in July 2024 for the Liberal Democrats in the South West. 

Adam Dance MP is one the younger MPs in Parliament and is also a Councillor on Somerset Council. He was previously Lead Member for Public Health on the council. Adam grew up knowing that life can be tough, from the bucket at the foot of his bed to catch raindrops, to being diagnosed with severe dyslexia which meant school was extremely challenging. Adam has fought hard in life and through his drive set up his own successful landscaping business. His drive only grew and his first step in politics began when he led a successful campaign to save the youth club in South Petherton.
