David Cameron to visit Hove


Tory leader David Cameron is giving people the chance to quiz him face-to-face when he visits Sussex.

The MP will be at the Old Market Arts Centre, in Hove, to talk to people living in Brighton and Hove, from 6.45pm to 8pm on Friday.

Conservative candidates Mike Weatherley, Dr David Bull and Simon Kirby said: "The point of these meetings is for David Cameron to hear directly from people about their opinions and concerns.

"It's a great opportunity for everyone – of any political persuasion – to come along and raise their issues, questions and concerns with him.

"Across the country, there are obviously real concerns over issues such as the recession, the pressures on homeowners and small businesses.

"It is the members of the public who set the agenda for the evening. Whatever the issue or concern, it will be answered."

Cameron Direct is a Conservative Party initiative where the Party Leader responds directly to members of the public on issues of concern to them. The visit is part of a nationwide series of events to support the initiative.

The event is free and open to all residents of Brighton and Hove but tickets have to be obtained in advance.

To apply email camerondirect@kemptownca.co.uk or phone 01273 358300.

Just what we all need right now - a visit from a privileged Tory toff.

Get used to it Osama...he's your next PM!

(Not my ideal choice either but he's going to walk election 2010)...the question is will the disgruntled, annoyed, betrayed electorate stop at the Tories on the ballot paper...or will they go a little further to the right??

A certain party who must remain nameless (because if we ignore them they will go away - not) has been polling 20-30% recently at by-elections in traditional Labour working class areas.

Thursday night in Manchester they polled 29.5% of the vote and increased their share by 2% on last May.

Thanks Labour for screwing up the country that much that you let that little genie out of the bag!

Wrong. They've been polling way lower than that. 6% at the last by-election in West Sussex. No-one really takes the BNP seriously as they have no real policies. "Kicking out the darkies" is not a policy. It's almost as retarded as UKIPs single policy; Get Out of Europe.

If they had a few more reasonable policies and a grip on reality, maybe they'd be in with a (scary) chance. But as it is, we may as well live in a two-party system; the one-eyes Scottish idiot or the bike-riding English ponce.

You know, there IS another choice. And he has been talking more sense than ALL the other idiots put together... LIB DEM. Yep, I said it. We have a THIRD party to choose from. "Oh, whats the point? It's a wasted vote". NOT IF YOU ALL VOTE FOR THEM. Is it not time to give someone COMPLETELY different a chance? I think so. Lets go Orange in 2009/10.

To be honest, they are the party I'll almost certainly vote for in the next election. The alternative (for me) is to not vote at all, and if I did that it would be for the first time in 35 years.
I just can't get my head around voting Tory right now. They seem disorganised and slightly stupid. Labour have been in power too long and show all the signs of lack of control and understanding that made the public vote out the Torys in 1997.
The ghastly BNP may do well in working class northern towns, with a large immigrant population - but in Brighton? No chance.
As for UKIP. If the Labour Government had taken a difficult decision and joined the euro zone in 2001 (I think), we wouldn't all be wondering now why the pound is going down the pan against the euro. We chose to have closer links to the US dollar rather than the euro - WRONG! So UKIP's stupid isolationist anti europe policies don't interest me in the slightest.
Yep, maybe it's time for the Lib Dems - more in the absence of any other coherent party than for any other reason!

Ahhh, Davy Boy...there you are. I am glad you are still here as you didn't seem to be capitalising as much as you could on the current mess the New Labour lot are making.
And where is your little school friend George Osborn??? Having a Russian lunch maybe.
Ohh, please give me strength. We are sick of "posh" Labour members failing to represent ordinary people struggling to pay gas and electric bills, ordinary people who have to take part in a weird lottery draw in the hope their kids don't get sent to cra* state schools. Hospitals in a state of collapse and now the economy completely shattered. Labour have no idea whatsoever about ordinary people's lives and struggles anymore but the Tory party is as bad. Still not modernised, still pushing forward a load of idiotic toffs who were mates at Eton. Save us from Osborn, Cameron and that shameful Boris Johnson and locally that Theobald in his Jaguar and Mary Mears.
There is little difference between the two parties. One likes socialism the other likes socialising. You work out which is which.
I am not so sure people will actually bother to vote as they are all the same.

For the first time since I was old enough to vote, I won't be voting in the next election as I don't believe in any of these 'leader's or their parties. I am sick of Cameron's negativity - stop saying what Labour are doing wrong, start saying how you'll make it better.

The Lib Dems change their leader too often, same for their policies. I haven't forgotten all the back-stabbing when they got rid of Kennedy, if they'll do that to one of their own, how would they treat us?

Gordon is out of his depth - Darling should have gone ages ago. We need a strong Chancellor at the moment, not a puppet.

And I don't see any potential leaders coming up the ranks either which is a huge concern.

No I'm not wrong No Way..I picked my words carefully...

I said they had been polling 20-30% in traditional Labour working class areas. The last time I looked Haywards Heath wasn't a Labour seat nor could you consider it working class!!! So I'm not surprised they only got 6% there (especially as it was their first time standing there as well).

Results for the BNP over the last year show a significant rising trend for them...In Cumbria they almost ousted the safest Labour council seat in the county reducing a Labour majority of over 1000 to just 8.

In Dagenham (hardly Northern England) they won 11 of the 12 council seats up for election last time.

Of course I don't expect them to win everywhere just as I don't expect any party to win everywhere. But the fact is that they are electable (if not at national level then at local and European level (the latter due to proportional representation)) and more people are realising that.

You can pretend it isn't happening - that's your perogative - but it is happening...expect to see BNP Euro MEP's after June...several of them.

Personally I can't think of anything funnier than sending Nick Griffin to Brussels....look on the bright side ...it gets him out of the UK!

Nor was Major at first so the point of having a go at Brown for not being elected in a general election doesn't really hold water, and Prime Ministers aren't voted in by the electorate anyway.

At least he was born in England so if he was elected it would make a nice change to being governed by the Scots. They've got their own Parliament now why can't they be satisfied with that.

What interesting reading! My Grandmother used to say "They all **** in the same pot" which sums up most of the comments quite well.

My policy when it comes to elections is to vote to get the party in power out of office. It would keep them on their toes if everybody did this.

1) Major had an election after around 15 months as PM

2)He faced a leadership challenge when he became PM (None of the cowards that are Labour MP's had enough backbone to stand against him). In effect he was handed it on a plate

3) Brown has no moral fibre. Blair said he would serve a full third term, he did not, many voted for Labour thinking Blair would be PM until the next election, he broke his promise, but brown seems happy to live on that lie.

Brown really is an inarticulate, scruffy, PR disaster of a Premier, I am embarrassed every time I see his hunched bumbling body represent our country overseas.

He has no (or little) mandate depending on your views, and should do the decent thing and call an election

BROWN IS THE 'JIM CALLAGHAN' OF THE TWO THOUSANDS.

No, Cameron won't be good for the UK. He's useless, as is the current government.
I don't want to be governed by Eton and Harrow toffs, anymore than I do by the current rabble.
They are all identikit polititians, and it's about time you realised that Slug, and stopped living in a dreamworld, thinking that a change of government will make the slightest bit of difference. It won't. And that's what's wrong with this country.

Well done Osama.
New Labour are a load of horrible socialist toffs who think they know about ordinary people yet send their kids to private schools while taking them ski-ing and touring Tuscany, while the Tories are stuck in a Toff time warp. How can people who have been to Eton have any idea whatsoever about modern Britain. Unfortunately the party still attracts youngish posh public schoolboys and their dreadful "Yuppie 80s" wives who behave as if Britain is still some colonial power. It would be impossible for them to understand today's word. They should stick to being accountants and jobs which do not require human contact. Just recall Boris Johnson making that embarrassing speech about ping pong during the Olympic hand over. Most of us sat waiting for a horrible faux pas to unfold because that is what we expect from these social incompetents.
This outdated Tory party is represented clearly at local level by Theobald driving around in a Jag and dumping it in a disabled parking bay. They are so stereotypical sometimes I think I am watching a BBC comedy drama with over exaggerated comedy characters.

Do I need to remind you about the Norman Lamont Black Wednesday fiasco in 1992? Well, I obviously do, as you seem to have forgotten it. We were forced out of the exchange rate mechanism (ERM).

"Black Wednesday, as 16 September 1992 came to be known, provided one of the most memorable failures of post-war British economic policy." Evan Davis. BBC website.

And lets' not even get into the Tory sell off of all the Utility companies - back to the people who already owned them!!

Fact is all Labour governments end their days on the verge of Bankruptcy , looking for the IMF to bail us out, Happened in the 1970's and will happen in 2009/2010. They overspend on public services, never improving them, then wallop!!!! the taxes go up, unemployment rises and they wonder why they will be kicked out for a generation.

And to add insult to injury, their leader goes to the Cenotaph to lay a wreath dressed in a 'donkey jacket'!

And why do you think, then that the Tories were kicked out for the last 12 years?
Brilliant management of the economy? Total squeaky clean lack of sleaze? Margaret Thatcher? John Major? Ian Duncan Smith? Norman Lamont? Neil Hamilton? 'LORD' ARCHER? JONATHAN AITKEN? What a bunch of wa*nkers. Donkey jackets at the cenotaph pale into insignificance. 2 of that lot served PRISON SENTENCES!!!

They are sh*t as well as the current lot, but worse sh*t as some of them are criminals as well as being politicians.

While you raise a glass for the death of Thatcher, raise one for the deaths of Mandelson and Alastair Campbell, the two most dangerous people ever to be allowed access and influence over top level government.
I had the misfortune of having encounters with Campbell and I met Archer may years ago through my business and I knew then that there was little hope for the future of the UK when such "blaggers" get to the top and are considered capable.
Ten minutes with them and you get the idea that something isn't right.

I personally don't care if he went to Eton or Whitehawk Comp. All I want is a Prime Minister who will not bullsh*t us and have solutions to get us out of this awful mess. And that he does.

For those of you thinking of voting for the BNP think again. They are nothing more than a protest party whose policies are nothing more than a joke. If you seriously think they are interested in you then you are sorely mistaken.

You say that their policies are joke???

Strange you say that as their policies are supported by 65% of the population (source a Sky news poll which ran a poll and presented BNP policies to gauge support).

Their policies include taking our troops out of the two illegal wars in Afghanistan and Iraq (popular), leaving the EUSSR (we only ever agreed to a loose trading relationship nothing else) , nationalising the banks (we're nearly there on that one already thanks to Labour but it was a BNP idea!), abolishing the BBC (yep I definitely like that one), reintroducing capital punsihment(widely supported) so hardly jokes...policies that when asked the population actually like in great numbers! I submit that its the aptly named Lib/Lab/Con who aren't interested in the ordinary voter.

The BNP website is the most visited of all political websites getting 3 hits to every one conservative website hit, 5 to every one labour website hit and 7 hits to every one Libdem website hit.

Their support is without a doubt growing (patchy down south I'll admit but further North 20-30% of the vote is now not uncommon). Last weeks Manchster by election - 30% of the vote, January by election in Cumbria a Labour majority of over 1000 reduced to 8 - yes EIGHT. Thats from 1-2% support only 5 years ago - impressive growth.

The June elections will see them take their first councils and their first MEP's (plural). Face facts one of the legacies of this disastrous Government will be the emergence onto the political stage of the BNP who will in future average 20-30% of the vote - thank you Labour - once out in the limelight they won't easily go back!

I for one intend to be a first time BNP voter in June especially as its a proportional representation election for the EUSSR - and I know plenty of others who will vote as I do as well...I know one local factory where the entire factory floor have agreed to vote BNP in June...I'm really looking forward to watching the so called "politicians" squirm when the results are announced.

Don't worry ...I'll vote for your Eton Toff in May 2010 just to make certain we see the back of Crash Gordon....(I owe that much to the party I used to be a member of - and if you want me back as a voter Tories then get of your liberal knees and start representing the British voter)...but June 09...well that's our time!

Only four months to go...watch Waddon by election in Croydon coming up...that might be interesting!

I can't believe people still consider voting BNP. Did you trawl through the names on the party membership list? It was like reading the cast names of an 80s black comedy. I think you would change your mind if you met these people. They are the grown ups who as kids didn't make it at school They are the thickos who were too stupid to even work cutting out foam shapes for packaging. It's all very well saying you will vote for them, but you would soon realise that only a handful of them are articulate and the rest are barely alive and only really good for organ donation.
When they get elected to local councils, they have a celebration party then don't bother turning up to any further meetings.
They really are not a serious party and all rather pointless....almost as pointless as Labour and Tory.

I know we disagree on this one TheInsider but we are going to have to agree to disagree. What you say about them is merely rhetoric.... a repeat of past old, somewhat tired insults. What I say about them however are facts ...support for them is rapidly growing....their website is the most visited of ALL political websites and is steadily gaining more hits each month (they give you the link to Alexa at the bottom of the home page on the BNP website to prove it - see the graphs for yourself!)...a real majority of the public support their policies. People don't vote for them because they THINK its a wasted vote...last year Margaret Hodge said "the BNP can win here" in Dagenham and lo and behold as soon as she said it 11 of the 12 council seats up for election that year went to the BNP from Labour. (It didn't get reported but it doesn't mean it didn't happen! lol)

I did trawl through the list of BNP members...mainly to see if I recognised any..I saw ordinary names, men and women...doctors, lawyers, teachers, office workers, the retired....and I have met some BNP supporters as well...I work with some and they have convinced me to vote for the BNP (at least at the Euro elections). You see the British have a very weird sense of humour...sending Nick Griffin (arguably Britains most ardent anti-European) to represent us in Europe has to be the funniest thing that will happen this year. A year when unemployment will hit 2 Million, negative equity returns, house prices crash, companies fail and our currency becomes worthless. Not much to laugh about is there? But sending Nick Griffin to Brussels as an MEP....now that's hilarious!!!! lol

The backlash against this Government won't stop at the Tory party gaining power.

Expect to see more BNP councillors after June, BNP MEPs (plural) and perhaps even the odd BNP council. (Stoke, Dagenham and Barking). They may be inexperienced as politicians...but do you know what...I like my politicians that way! It keeps them on their toes.

The writing is on the wall...I see even Ed Balls hinted at it yesterday when he said that this depression (the worst in 100 years) will change the face of British politics forever. He knows whats coming - not a BNP Government but the Nationalist voice finally being heard - long overdue in this PC correct, liberal left land.

Whatever we say on this blog...June elections are only 4 months away...the economy will get worse in that time, unemployment will continue to rise, 200,000 people a month are slipping into negative equity...and there will be more Labour sleaze as the rats feather their nests before they get booted out in 2010...and BNP support will continue to grow, day after day. Get used to it! They are here and here to stay....unlike many Liebour MEP's and councillors after June!

As for them not turning up to council mettings...I guess thats a risk I'm prepared to take.

I cannot understand why when the whole country is in such turmoil why the politicians still see it as an opportunity to constantly poll for votes by running everyone else down.Could'nt we just for once work together to get country back on track.

The fact of the matter is, the BNP is a racist, offensive, tribalistic group of xenophobic Bernard Manning fans masquerading as a political party and will never, ever, ever be taken seriously by the vast majority of intelligent and worldly wise folk. The fact that you feel so strongly and emotional about the party leads me to believe you are supremely under educated.
