It’s oh so quiet…

Sorry for the lack of blogging – I’ve been enjoying the Spanish sunshine and summer beaches for the last week.

I’ve got two new campaign days this month and will be updating with some articles and news shortly.

Tell us what you think, Gordon

Our ‘Prime Minister’ Gordon Brown has once again managed to demonstrate that he has no backbone. The sight of a terrorist responsible for the murders of hundreds of innocent people being given a hero’s welcome home does beg the question – how did this happen.

Quick on the case to defend the Government from allegations of ‘a deal’ was spin master general Peter Mandelson who said he found the allegation untrue and offensive. Clearly there are questions here that need answers and we will only get to the bottom of this when Gordon Brown

Keep Right Online, the increasingly impressive source for Conservative news and opinion has just published my latest opinion article on the challenges facing our troops.

I’m Damn Proud of our NHS

Our National Health Service has delivered quality healthcare to millions of families based on need rather than ability to pay. Our Doctors and Nurses work flat out to ensure that this service performs to best of its ability for every man woman and child in the country. This is why our service should be protected at all costs.

If we ditched our National Health Service then Britain would be a very, very different place to live.

Need an ambulance? Get ready for the bill.

Need an emergency operation? Better take out a loan.

Some would argue that a wholly privatised system would deliver a first class health service, but all too often they forget just how many families would not be able to afford it. So what do they do if they don’t have the money?

That’s why I’m standing up for our National Health Service.

Geneva canvassing - help turn Burton & Uttoxeter blue

A great opportunity has come up for activists to help Andrew Griffiths and his team turn the historic brewing towns of Burton & Uttoxeter blue.

The event will take place at CCHQ on Monday, August 17, 2009, 6:30pm - 8:30pm.

There will also be free pizza and drinks for your troubles, please click here for the Facebook page.

Mandy goes negative

It looks like Lord Mandelson, AKA The Prince of Darkness is back to what he does best – attacking. It’s a classic hallmark of a Government in meltdown with its back to wall, desperate not to sink. Nasty as these attacks can be, they do at least remind the public of just how desperate this Labour is.

Women 2 Win

I’m delighted to announce that London Conservative Future is holding a special public speaking workshop for women on September 5. This is a fantastic opportunity for our talented female activists to further enhance their public speaking skills and raise their profiles on the national scene.

London CF is privileged to have a committee largely made up of some of the party’s brightest female stars. This looks to be a great event and I hope as many of our activists can make it as possible.

SHAME on Gordon Brown

The fact that Gordon Brown is suppressing publication of a Ministry of Defence procurement report showing billions of pounds being wasted demonstrates how weak and timid this Government has become.

It’s bad enough that Labour grossly underfunds our armed forces, but now it won’t even let them know that it’s wasted billions of pounds on a botched procurement programme.

Harriet Harman is in the wrong party

London CF is today reporting that Harriet Harman could be using her time in Downing Street to position herself as the heir to Brown.

Senior women ministers have long complained of Gordon Brown’s attitudes and leadership style.

Check out London CF's report.

We NEED a Minister for Afghanistan

The Labour Government has treated our armed forces appallingly for far too long. After General Sir Richard Dannatt, the retiring Chief of the General Staff, last week said that Whitehall was not properly focused on supporting the British mission in Afghanistan, it became clear that something needed to be done, and fast.

David Cameron’s proposal for a Minister for Afghanistan would prove to our armed forces that Conservative Government takes their role seriously and is behind them 100%. After all, these are the men and women that put their lives on the line for our freedom. For too long Gordon Brown has wasted money on non-jobs and red-tape in Whitehall when he could have been investing in protecting our heros.

Labour will not stick up for our armed forces and it’s time for this to change.

Brewing a campaign success in Burton & Uttoxeter

I spent the weekend with my London Conservative Future colleagues for a special ‘on tour’ campaign weekend in the historic brewing towns of Burton & Uttoxeter. Working together over two days of hard campaigning we managed to deliver over 7,000 pieces of literature for Andrew Griffiths PPC.



This campaign day was another reminder of exactly what Conservative Future activists can achieve in a key target seat when we work together. With a general election just around the corner (whether Gordon Brown likes it or not) we need the entire CF network to pull together and show the party and the wider country that we are a force to be reckoned with.
