Lord Heseltine and John Lewis MD at Birmingham Chamber dinner

Lord Michael Heseltine and John Lewis managing director Andy Street will form a compelling double bill of speakers at the Birmingham Chamber of Commerce annual dinner – only a week before the city decides if it wants an elected mayor. Lord Heseltine, a cabinet minister in both the Thatcher and Major governments, will share the platform with Andy Street, who also chairs the Greater Birmingham and Solihull Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP). The Chamber’s dinner takes place at the International Convention Centre in Birmingham on 25 April, the week before Birmingham voters go to the polls on 3 May to decide if they want an elected mayor. If they vote yes, the election will take place in November.
