Last week, various activists including the National Executive’s own Chris Hampsheir and Michelle Donelan led a team to Wentworth and Dearne to campaign on behalf of Michelle, who is the only National Executive member fighting for a Parliamentary seat at the upcoming General Election.
The weekend was devised around the target local council seats and we started off early in the morning, with various members of the small and steadfast local association, who were absolutely fantastic in putting us up. A special thanks to the Chairman of the …

Come and celebrate the announcement of a General Election with the birthday boy and girl (and Conservative Parliamentary candidate) Michelle Donelan! (Michelle’s turning 26 and Dom’s turning 33!)
We have a private room booked at Jewel Bar, Piccadilly Circus – 7pm.
This is also a semi-going away celebration before Michelle hits the campaign trail full time in Wentworth and Dearne and we want to send her off with her pockets full of cash to fight Gordon Brown’s Housing Minister at the election in Wentworth and Dearne!
Entry is a measly £5 which will …

Carl Walters is the Chairman of York St John University CF. He is raising money for Help for Heroes:
Before I came to study in York I served in the RAF Regiment, and completed a 6 month tour of duty in Afghanistan. Whilst I was there I lost many good friends, and I saw with my own eyes the effects that the injuries sustained had on people.
My colleague SAC Gill, who is currently serving in Afghanistan, and I have decided to raise some money for HELP FOR HEROES, which has changed …

What makes you a Conservative?
Even though I am new to the world of politics and have only been a Conservative voter for a few years I realise the importance of a decentralised strong state, the idea of social responsibility, freedom and the protection of rural communities. It is time to put an end to the failed “Labour Project” and have hope and faith in the Conservative Party to bring about real change.
What are you currently working on?
I am currently liasing with a …

I am writing to you as the first and only member of the Conservative Future National Executive to stand as a Parliamentary Candidate whilst still a serving CF member. I am standing in the constituency of Wentworth and Dearne in South Yorkshire, a seat occupied by Gordon Brown’s housing minister, John Healey.
I am determined to give New Labour a good solid run for their money in this seat. The people of Wentworth and Dearne want change and they deserve it and a real choice in this election. Scarily, voters are …
