YouGov Invite in January...?

Hello all, hope you're well!

I was just wondering if anyone else has had a call from a company through a YouGov survey regarding the Power2010 campaign? It's a campaign for political change, and I've found the website online which looks kocher, but I'm still a little apprehensive.

It seems as if around 200 people have been asked to go to London on a weekend in January to discuss political reform. When I asked what exactly I will be doing, I didn't get a definite answer, just that we will be 'discussing' and 'debating' political issues.

I've been told the transport will be paid for and that they'll send my train tickets in the post, and accomodation is also paid for. Sounds a little too good to be true, plus you get £50 on top as a small incentive.

Does anyone else know anything about this? I feel a bit scared travelling there (3.5 hrs away) and not knowing anyone else who is also participating :confused:

Many thanks in advance :rolleyes:
