Former Conservative MP Dominic Grieve and Former Green MEP Molly Scott Cato have joined the National Council of the European Movement. 

Their appointments come as the organisation charts a new course following the election, and is now focused on holding the government to account and ensuring that European rights, values, and standards are upheld in British law following the end of the Brexit transition period. 

Commenting, Dominic Grieve said: 

“When I spoke at the Grassroots for Europe conference in January I was struck by the passion and enthusiasm of European Movement activists.

It is a privilege to work alongside them”
