I don't think we should have to pay £7.50 to question public servants! Bloody Cheek!

I believe the event is part of the social and fund raising efforts of the Watford & District Synagogue and the price includes refreshments. But if you don't want to pay you don't have to go.

I don't mind the venue covering costs, or even raising funds, but there is something wrong about charging the public to talk to an elected representative about their work as such.

Politics isn't entertainment. They aren't 'celebs' despite what they might think.

If these politicians wish to address a number of the people at once with their views, then surely they should be the ones to fund that?

£7.50 for a cup of coffee with few biscuits and/or raising funds for a religion - no thanks.

As the post above said why do we need to pay to talk, to debate to an elected representative about their work.
