The Conservative Party chairman writes ...

Patrick McLoughlin, Chairman of the Conservative party, writes to party members as follows:

Trust me - this fight matters
Conservatives
 
"A few days ago you should have received a letter from the Prime Minister, outlining her vision of a country that works for everyone.
We are incredibly grateful for your support and I hope that you are behind us in the months and years ahead.

In Cabinet each of us are playing our part in building a better Britain. Philip Hammond is getting on with the job of building an economy that works for everyone. Michael Fallon and Amber Rudd are continuing the vital work of keeping our nation safe, at home and abroad. And Jeremy Hunt is working hard to deliver a National Health Service that is available to patients whenever and wherever they need it.
 
And unlike Labour, Conservative MPs and party members are out there backing our leader all the way.

But I won’t make the mistake of underestimating our opponents, and I know that you won’t either.

Because the risks that the hard left poses to our economy and our society, quite frankly, doesn’t bear thinking about. That’s why as Party Chairman I'm determined that we are ready to fight every election in 2017, whether it’s county councils in England, local authorities in Wales or mayoral elections in our cities.
But if we are to defeat Labour and the might of the unions, and to go on standing up for ordinary working people in Britain, I need your help.

 By giving just £1 for every cabinet minister, you can make a real and lasting difference to our campaign in the country. More leaflets, better communication with voters and better organisation.

Thank you for your support and I hope that you will give generously to our campaign fund.


Patrick
Sir Patrick McLoughlin, Chairman of the Conservative Party

Nick Herbert on his visit to flood hit areas of Cumbria

Please note that the post below was published more than ten year ago on 21st November 2009 Nick Herbert MP, shadow cabinet member for the Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs, was in Cumbria this morning to see the areas affected by the flooding. He writes on Conservative Home about his visit. Here is an extract. I’ve been in Cumbria today to see the areas affected by the floods. I arrived early in Keswick where I met officials from the Environment Agency. Although the river levels had fallen considerably and homes were no longer flooded, the damage to homes had been done. And the water which had got into houses wasn’t just from the river – it was foul water which had risen from the drains. I talked to fire crews who were pumping flood water back into the river, and discovered that they were from Tyne & Wear and Lancashire. They had been called in at an hours’ notice and had been working on the scene ever since, staying at a local hotel. You cannot fail to be impressed by the

Quotes of the day 19th August 2020

"Wise men profit more from fools than fools from wise men; for the wise men shun the mistakes of fools, but fools do not imitate the successes of the wise."  ( Cato the Elder , who lived 234 BC - 149 BC, quoted in "Lives" by Plutarch.) There is a similar saying by Germany's Iron Chancellor, Otto von Bismarck: Benjamin Franklin is supposed to have put the same saying in a more humorous form: "Wise men profit by the mistakes of others, while fools will not learn even from their own blunders." See also this thread on the "Quote Investigator" website . Let us all be wise and learn from the events of the last few days.

Quote of the day 24th July 2020

I was moved to put the passage below forward as a quote today when I saw a horrible post on twitter from someone writing that it was "excellent" that someone who took a different view from her about Brexit had died. I won't write which way round it was so that all the Remain supporters can assume the post was from a Brexit fanatic welcoming the death of a remainer and all the Leavers can assume it was a Remainiac welcoming one less Brexiteer. There's been plenty of nasty stuff on both sides but if you catch anyone of your own viewpoint  posting something like that who might listen to you, please do call them out on it - and point out that they're giving everyone on your side of the argument a bad name. Anyway, here's the quote from John Donne.
