The Broxbourne Conservative Annual Association Dinner was a well attended event and our guest speaker Priti Patel MP was did not disappoint. Her after dinner speech and Q+A session paralleled the fierce debates that have recently been seen in the House of Commons.

Broxbourne came together in Goffs Oak, Cheshunt, Broxbourne and Hoddesdon to remember and honour those who sacrificed themselves to protect us and our freedom.

Charles Walker says Government plans to tackle Nitrogen Dioxide pollution in Broxbourne are not compatible with Veolia’s planning application for a 350,000 tonnes incinerator, generating a further 97,820 HGV movements a year.

Today is a very sad day for our country with Lady Thatcher passing away. David Cameron put it extremely well when he said that she saved our country and will be remembered as the greatest peacetime prime minister. She quite simply restored this nation back to its best from "the sick man of Europe". She offered a generation the chance to gain wealth and prosperity through buying their own homes and buying shares in British companies. I was immensely privileged to be present at the Houses of Parliament when she unveiled her statue and I will always remember that day. I know that her leadership, courage, and belief in freedom and liberty inspired a generation. I can only hope that we never stop learning the lessons that she taught us. The thoughts and prayers of all of us are with her and her family. On behalf of Broxbourne Conservatives, thank you for all that you did Lady Thatcher. You will never be forgotten and long may your legacy and ideas live on. Paolo

Today, the Chancellor delivered a budget that proves we’re on the side of hard working families. We’re backing workers, savers and home owners. People in this country who want the best for their children and for future generations.
 In government, we’re clearing up Labour’s mess and building Britain’s business.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone!!Paolo

Please find attached the latest Association Newsletter which was sent to members in August.I would particularly draw your attention to the upcoming hugely fun Blue Ball. We have the pleasure of an excellent guest speaker in the Rt Hon Alan Duncan MP. He is the Member of Parliament for Rutland and Melton and Minister for International Development. He is very outspoken and will no doubt give us an excellent speech along with answering lots of our questions. If you have never been before I would definitely encourage you to come along for a really fun evening!Paolo
