The One Young World Summit kicks off tomorrow in the National Convention Centre.
We stage an annual Summit where the most valuable young talent from global and national companies, NGO’s, universities and other forward-thinking organisations are joined by world leaders, acting as the One Young World Counsellors.
At the Summit, delegates debate, formulate and share innovative solutions for the pressing issues the world faces.
Alternatively, more globalist scaremongering, fossil-fueled lecturing from Geldof, creepy new world order nonsense and grim selfies.
YOU decide.
Previously: Big Non-Dom
Update:
Outside the Convention Centre this evening.
Thanks Acting The Gom

What do you mean you weren’t there?
Our Oisín was there, and now that we’ve scraped his quivering body down off the ceiling with a yardbrush, he reports:
Underworld performing the album “Dubnobasswithmyheadman” live on its 20th anniversary at the Royal Festival Hall in London’s Southbank Centre on Saturday. Other tracks were played, resulting in it “kicking off”, as it were. Bonus copy of Razzle at 8.30.
