The Prime Minister hails CFS’s Successes
By Conservative Future Scotland. June 22, 2011
Prime Minister David Cameron has praised Conservative Future for their help during the recent local elections and AV campaign, in a speech at the first CF Chairman’s Reception held last Tuesday.
Sponsored by Bell Pottinger Public Affairs, the event was an opportunity for CF National Chairman Ben Howlett and the National Executive to thank Regional, Area and Branch chairmen for all of their support and hard work in the recent election campaigns.
Speaking at the event the Prime Minister said: “I think it is great time to be a Conservative, it is a great time to be in CF. We are going to have some huge battles coming up in the next few years but when I look back over the last year, we haven’t just dealt with the deficit, started to reform our public services, formed a coalition, made difficult decisions, we have also managed to increase the number of Conservative councillors that we have and we have also managed, with your help, to win that fantastic referendum on AV.”
Conservative Future has grown from strength to strength over the last six months, we have more branches created per week than at any time in our history, we have increased memberships, helped secure victory for the No to AV Campaign and for more councillors up and down the country then we believed we would. It is no coincidence that Parliamentary candidates in the 2010 General Election won where they had a local Conservative Future Branch to help out.
However, there will be no slow down in the forward progression of Conservative Future. We have a packed calendar in the months ahead in the run up the Party Conference, with a series of events and campaigns designed to address the issues important to young people.
I am proud of CF’s hard work, the Party co-Chairmen are proud of CF, but more importantly than that, the Prime Minister is proud of Conservative Future.
Other guest speakers at the event included Conservative Party co-Chairman, Lord Feldman of Elstree, Andrew Stephenson MP, Conservative Party Vice-Chairman and Tim Collins, Managing Director of Bell Pottinger Public Affairs.
