This is an exciting time in British politics. We have the opportunity to develop a positive, forward looking agenda that helps meet the big challenges our country faces, and helps make Britain a better place to live.

We are a Party eager to rebuild and strengthen our society for the benefit of all.

Conservative Party Principles

 

What are the beliefs that have united and inspired our Party over decades?

 

Freedom.  We believe in the right of each man and woman to use their own initiative and their effort to better themselves – to be enterprising without a controlling state snatching away the fruits of their achievement.

 

Responsibility.  That means a tough stand on law and order; it means upholding values and institutions; and it means maintaining a firm stance on the defence of our country.  You cannot have freedom without responsibility.

 

Opportunity for all.  That means making sure that the chance to do well is within everyone’s reach; that ownership is more and more widely spread; that people know that they will be cared for when they are weak - and that they are part of a society that welcomes their contribution.

 

 

A few misconceptions about Conservative Party Membership

 

“ But the Conservatives get their money from big business”

 

UNTRUE. Nearly all the money raised locally comes from membership subscriptions or fundraising events organised by our members.  So every subscription, every raffle ticket sold, every successful coffee morning is important to us.

 

“I don’t have the time”

 

There is no time commitment involved in being a member.  If you do not wish to do more, you can just pay a subscription, that in itself is a valuable contribution.  However many members do decide to get more involved.  Some help raise money through social events.  Others deliver leaflets.  Yet others like to canvass for support.

 

 

So the choice is yours

But first, the subscription is the important thing
