Babyfaced CFers Making Their Mark

I have often been accused of having a babyface. While I do look young for my age (or so I’ve been told!) it has come to my attention that there are others within the CF movement that are more deserving of the “babyface” title. Most of my CF friends joined the Party round about the [...]

Alex Singleton: A Fisking

Mr. Alex Singleton of MailOnline has written an interesting blogpost which deserves examination.  He makes a case that Conservative Future has failed, and needs reinvigorating by a candidate whom Mr. Singleton happens to have in mind.  It is therefore worth quoting most of the post paragraph by paragraph: Anyone who has followed the internal workings [...]

Should CF Give Romney a Hand?

With the presidential elections underway and the result for the most powerful body in the world drawing nearer and nearer, is it time for CF to give their full support to their American cousins.

Conservatives in the Cities

Beginning in the economic revolution of the early 1980’s many of Britain’s cities became increasingly anti-Conservative. Opposition, and in some cases hatred, towards the Conservative Party only appeared to increase and, as the ballot box shows, much of this has failed to fade away. The opposition to what we were doing during the 1980’s became [...]

TaxPayers’ Alliance: ‘Stop Funding Argentina’

They are calling on the British government to oppose further loans to Argentina, from the World Bank, being underwritten by British Taxpayers; and includes an e-petition on the UK Government’s website. As of writing the total [...]

“Ae fond kiss, and then we sever”?
