The young people

I went through a number of years avoiding the youth wing of the Conservative party like the plague! Young people who should be having fun and trying to get their legs over were dressed in tweeds and trying to act like 60 year olds.

I have to say that in recent years the Conservative Future people that I have met have forced me to revise my opinion.

Firstly they are now much more . . . . . . normal. They are getting heavily involved in campaigning and are coming up with some very useful and innovative ways of reaching the "dissaffected youth".

Two new(ish) websites that deserve a mention are Bexley CF's site and BlueShark.tv

Both embrase new media properly and are genuinly interesting. The Friday Night Live(ish) on BlueShark runs the risk of becoming habitual listening for me.

If we're not careful the young blood in the party might actually help get us elected!!!!!!
