Brexit, wearing masks, the royal family: we want to hear your views on divisive issues

We want to hear from people across the UK who hold different views on some of the more divisive issues of our time for our new series Dining across the divide

Where do you stand on wearing masks, Brexit or the royal family? Have you ever wanted to try and persuade someone with a different view?

For a new Guardian series, we would like to hear from people, living in the UK, who have differing viewpoints about some of the most divisive issues that affect us now.

Our aim is to find out whether encountering someone with the opposite point of view can make a difference. We’re interested in hearing from adults from every part of the UK, with an interest in meeting and discussing opposing views with another reader.
