Free Speech & Patriots (Make New Friends)

Fri

📍 NE4 7NA

This group is for people who want to make new friends where you already know you share some important values in common; you support for free speech, open conversation, and pride in Britain and British culture. Making friends as an adult can be difficult, especially when people feel they have to walk on eggshells or avoid honest conversations about the world and current events. This group is designed for those who want genuine connection with like-minded people in a relaxed and respectful environment. We’ll aim to meet for drinks, dinners, coffee, walks, cinema trips and other social outings. While politics and current affairs may naturally come up in conversation, this is not intended to be a debate or activism group. The focus is friendship, open discussion, humour, and meeting people who value free expression and respectful disagreement. Everyone is welcome to join, provided you are civil, respectful, and understand that people may sometimes hold different opinions.

This group is for anyone who likes nights out, rock, alt-music, club nights, bars, beers (other beverages are available), food and socializing with mates new and old. \*Formerly Beer Bikes and Rock and Roll, but as I'm not a biker myself, putting events on was difficult!!! Everyone's welcome but respect and friendliness is a must. It's great if people hit it off, but please note this is a social group, it's not a dating/singles scene. If you're just starting out and bit nervous, just message the organizer and we'll be happy to arrange meeting you early to introduce you to the group without you having to walk in on your own. So we know who to look out for at events, only memberships with a full facial profile picture will be approved.
