I want to congratulate new Wyre Forest MP Mark Garnier as Worcestershire turned blue on May 7th. The recent General Election saw 4 new Conservatives seats join Bromsgrove and Mid Worcestershire’s Peter Luff giving Worcestershire 6 Conservative MP’s in total out of 6.
In all there were 5 new Conservative MP’s elected. The Bromsgrove seat was returned to the Conservatives by Sajid Javid following the resignation of Julie Kirkbride. Harriett Baldwin won West Worcestershire, Robin Walker won Worcester and Wyre Forest saw Mark Garnier take the seat.
Another big surprise …

Thank you for all your patience over these past few days. I know that you must have found it frustrating not knowing exactly what was going on while negotiations continued. However, the great news is that after 13 years, our party is back in government.

So first, I want to thank you again for all your hard work and dedication, not just over the past few weeks but over the past few years. I literally could not have done this without you.

We go into the general election on 6 May with trust in politics and politicians at an all-time low. And I can understand why: the years of broken promises, the expenses scandal, the feeling that politicians have become too remote from the people – they’ve all taken their toll.
That’s why I’m making this contract with you.
For too long, you’ve been lied to by politicians saying they can sort out all your problems. But it doesn’t work like that. Real change is not just about what the government does. Real change …

On Monday 8th March I joined the Conservative pre election rally for Mark Garnier at Margaret Thatcher House (MTH). Mark Garnier the PPC ‘electrified the audience’ at the pre election rally and in the process helped motivate the team to get stuck in and campaign hard towards what will be a ‘hardfought’ and ‘much needed’ conservative victory at the General Election.
The event was a resounding success with a packed hall of activists, Councillors and party members. Those present …

From the Blue Blog: Conservative Future are standing for elections to the student body.
By Kit Friend
For a number of years, NUS elections have been contested by open Labour Students, and “Independents” who are often Labour Party Members (or at a push Liberal or Green).
But this year, I’m going to be contesting as an official Conservative candidate. I believe standing for office carries with it a responsibility to be open about affiliations, and that if the NUS claims to be a truly representative body, this should be reflected in the politics …
