Welcome

I have just returned from a fantastic weekend at the Conservative Spring Conference in Brighton. It pretty much had everything – good politics, decent weather (on Saturday at least), a demonstration by the Socialist Workers, and a tea party with a difference.

It was great to reconnect with old acquaintances and to make new friends over an Azerbaijani glass of wine or three (they know how to throw a party!), but more than anything else it was a pleasure to be able to hear Conservative policy from the people who have developed and will be responsible for implementing it.

What the Party Conference always drives home to me is the sheer depth of talent that we have on our team in the Shadow Cabinet. You really do get a sense of a strong, unified team all pulling in the same direction and working hard to bring the improvements our country needs so desperately at the moment.

I think it is this as much as the forthcoming General Election that has made me want to start blogging again. Previously, I mainly blogged about music…infrequently (you can view my previous efforts here). This time it’s going to be mainly political. I hope you find it interesting. Comment always welcome, clean comment even more so.

Enjoy,
James
