It is very promising that your branch's discussion meeting has non-members out-numbering members. In recent years it seems to be always the other way around.Is this an effect of you collecting contact e-mail addresses from your street lit -stalls of those interested and then following up by sending out invitations to the meeting?
Not in the case of Brighton since we've only had two street stalls there in as many years. There it's largely due to a) one member introducing various relatives of his extended family who in turn have told (and brought) their friends along and b) those contacts we've accumulated over a four year period (since the branch's inception in fact) from various sources including, of course, the party's activities during the Euroelections and the General Election in 2014 & 2015 and who we've steadily added to our email and postal mailing list which currently stands at 134…Next meeting in Brighton is on Tuesday, 8 March.http://www.meetup.com/The-Socialist-Party-of-Great-Britain/events/228117257/
