You are paying UK Israel Business which is effectively the bilateral chamber of commerce between the two countries (with a strong tech focus) and a surprisingly effective organisation.

I hope his breakfast is really terrible. Like the last "English breakfast" pulled from Y.

Seems like a pretty good turn out so far...and arguably an informal and accidental DO!

Am I blind? I can't see where it actually is being held apart from 'City of London',

Any ideas?

The venue is kept quiet for security reasons, but it is being held within easy reach of a number of Tube stations in the City.

Great - but I've bought a ticket and still can't see on any of the email confirmations where exactly it is.

Will there be a pre-event email to confirm location?

There will be - but if you haven't received it by Tuesday, PM me and I'll send you the location.

Sad that Cruz now believes his life is at risk due to the cuts.

Without straying OT, charities linked to Israel tend to inadvertedly attract unwanted attention at times, so this is one way of preventing such an issue.

Many charity annual dinners, for example, will simply say Central London venue, or they may not detail the after-dinner speaker.

Anyway, it should be an interesting event, and the location is easily reached.
