We’ll be bringing you coverage from there from Saturday all the way through to Thursday – but in addition to that we’re also running and supporting a few events which we’d be delighted to see you at – ranging from serious policy to daft karaoke, hopefully there’s something for every one of our reader’s who are in Manchester next week. Here are the details:
