Cameron Direct in Fleetwood

David Cameron and Eric Ollerenshaw

At the invitation of Eric Ollerenshaw, the Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for Lancaster and Fleetwood, the Rt Hon David Cameron MP, Leader of the Opposition, will be taking questions in Fleetwood’s Marine Hall, between 6 and 7pm on the 26th March.

This is part of a programme of visits to towns and cities across the country, at which David is prepared to take unscripted questions from members of the public.

Politicians can too easily become cut off from the public and their everyday concerns. And they can too easily revert to sound-bite politics, offering short, snappy quotes on the issues of the day without ever taking the time to dig deeper.

Cameron Direct is the antidote to all of this.

It’s a return to the old-style town hall meetings, where politicians stand up in front of a crowd and answer questions from local residents rather than national journalists.

There are no scripts or planted questions, and the events, which are taking place throughout Britain, are open to everyone who lives in the local area, no matter what their political persuasion.

If you would like to attend, please ring 01995 672977 or use our application form.

Cameron Direct gives David the chance to discover the local and national issues that people are concerned about. And it gives the people of Britain the chance to meet David and ask him about the issues that matter most to them.

Entrance to the event is free and open to all local residents, but tickets must be obtained in advance. If you would like to attend, please ring 01995 672977 or use our application form.

Attending members of the public are asked arrive at the Marine Hall at 5.40pm for a prompt start. Spaces are limited, so please book as early as possible.

Eric Ollerenshaw said, “Many people on the doorstep have told me they feel Fleetwood has been forgotten by the Government and by County Hall.  This event proves that it has not been forgotten by the Conservative Party.”

    Thank you for your comment and I hope you are able to get tickets so you can put your questions to David Cameron.

    People in Fleetwood keep telling me that they feel Fleetwood has been forgotten by this Government – well I hope this shows it hasn’t been forgotten by the Conservatives.
