James Wharton MP

Last night I attended a meeting with the Conservative Party’s Campaign Director for this area.  With the conference season nearly upon us and a general election getting ever closer we need to make plans for how best to spend our time when the campaign is officially launched.  The Labour MP has been trying to jump on several local bandwagons so has clearly started campaigning already.  Unfortunately for her people are wise to politicians who only turn up at election time.  We have been working hard for local people all year round for several years since my selection in early 2007.  We need an MP who is there all the time and who really does represent local people, not someone who is only interested in residents when she wants their votes.
