Hertfordshire's MPs are ready to go head to head in the battle over whether Britain should stay in the European Union.
As the build-up to the EU referendum in June begins to hot up, Watford MP Richard Harrington has vowed to stand by his pro-Europe principles and work to convince constituents that staying in the EU would be the best result for the city.
But Hitchin and Harpenden MP Peter Lilley declared he will be one of the driving forces of the so-called Brexit campaign.
The pair will hold a debate on the eve of the referendum at Watford Synagogue on June 22.
The debate will start at 7.30pm and will be chaired by Watford Rabbi Ephraim Levine.
The event is free but you must pre-register on the United Synagogues website. Click here for more.
The region’s other MPs are divided on the issue, with Hertsmere MP Oliver Dowden and South West Hertfordshire MP David Gauke saying they will vote to stay in and Hemel Hempstead MP Mike Penning and St Albans MP Anne Main voting to stay out.
