Helen speaks to the students at Kingston University Freshers’ Fair

21 September 2007

The local Conservative Future group was at Kingston University Freshers’ Fair this week working tirelessly to promote our candidate Helen Whately. Despite stiff competition from nightclubs, the local cinema and university sport teams the joint Kingston and Richmond Conservative stall received a high number of visitors. From the positive response we got from students we can tell that this year is going to be a good one for Conservative Future. Students were keen to quiz Helen over her priorities for Kingston, discussing issues such as transport, the environment, education and the NHS with students as well as sounding out their views on Boris Johnson for Mayor.

 

Helen said “It’s important for young people to become politically engaged. Decisions made in Westminster impact us not just now but decades into the future. This generation of students will have to live with this government’s mistakes.”
