Hiya snugs. How did the election go in your area? I am ecstatic that my seat changed from Labour to Conservative courtesy of a Mr Greg Hands. He got my vote not just because he was a Tory but because he had constantly been campaigning since I moved to the area. He actually worked on local issues and worked to help the local community unlike the Labour candidate who never even bothered to correspond with his/her constituents (no letters, no leaflets no nothing).

I come from Ashford in Kent so my Constituency is a safe Conservative Seat my local MP is Damien Green who has in the past been a shadow minister.

Congratulations on electing Greg Hands I understand from Mad Ivan he is most certainly someone to watch for the future.

Personally I think that Michael Howard did very well in the circumstances and I would like him to stay at least until it is decided whether or not there will be a constitutional vote re the EU.

Who do you favour for the new leader I understand favourite is David Davis not a great choice IMHO but then I come from the John Redwood wing of the party. I would love to see John run for the leadership again especially if voting rules remain at grass root level I think he may stand more of a chance than if they change them back to Parliamentary votes only.
