Why vote Conservative?

Interesting article about Cambs Fire Authority in the Hunts Post. Cllr Sir Peter Brown has a go at the national government for not understanding Cambridgeshire. The article says:

Sir Peter Brown, one of Huntingdon‘s county councillors, spoke out strongly and voted against any reductions that might be made in Huntingdon’s fire and rescue service. Speaking at a meeting of the Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Fire Authority, Sir Peter said, “For more than 30 years, successive governments have expressed little understanding of Cambridgeshire’s needs. They have accepted that we are a growing county but, in many cases, have not accepted the responsibilities that go with it."

So who was Prime Minister for 6 years and Chancellor beforehand? Why our former MP John Major. And who was the Constituency Agent for John Major. Err.. Peter Brown.

Other ministers from Cambridgeshire in the last 30 years:
Francis Pym
James Paice
Brian Mawhinney

Andrew Lansley

"For more than 30 years, successive governments have expressed little understanding of Cambridgeshire’s needs". With the majority of the 30 years under Conservative rule and with a Prime Minister and other senior Ministers I would have thought our Conservative MPs would have made Government aware of Cambridgeshire's needs. And Peter Brown as Agent to John Major would have had a direct channel to John Major.

So there we have it. The former Conservative Agent to John Major is informing everyone that the Conservatives MPs and Ministers have little understanding of Cambridgeshire's needs. As that seems to be the case, what is the point on electing Conservative Members of Parliament.

HCCA finally catches up with their website.

I see the HCCA has finally gotten around to make some changes to their website that needed to happen as I set out here. The main change has to be the imprint which has finally been changed from Peter Brown to Simon Burton.

I do have to wonder whether I'm doing the Conservatives job for them! Well if I am, there is another problem the St Neots Conservative website has a whole host of problems.

Firstly, there is the imprint. As with the the HCCA the imprint still says Peter Brown.

The other is why is Catherine Hutton missing from the County Councillors website?

If the St Neots Conservatives aren't going to continue updating this website what is the point of it?
