May Day Event – What is to be won?

On May 3rd, Unions Wellington and the Wellington Socialist Society will co-host a panel discussion on socialist strategy and organising in a post-pandemic era at Bedlam & Squalor.

This will be our May Day event for 2022. Two years of the pandemic has seen limited opportunities for those on the left in Aotearoa to gather.

Both Unions Wellington and the Wellington Socialist Society see that providing those on the left with a space to discuss our future and “what is to be won”, as vital in building a stronger left in the post-pandemic age.

Our panelists come from a range of backgrounds and will provide unique insights into what they view as the current state of the left and where they think we need to be moving in the coming years.

Once the panel have had their chance to speak, our MC for the night will take some time to ask the panelists some questions, and then we will open up the mic to our guests to ask questions of the panel.

6:00 pm – Doors open
6:30 pm – Introductions led by Union’s Wellington & WSS
