House Meetings
Public meetings in the traditional
sense – unless they are of a protest nature – do not seem popular these
days. In any case as a forum for exchange of views they are not ideal.
People often feel nervous about standing up and speaking in such formal
circumstances.
I am always ready to attend private and informal gatherings held in
people’s houses. If a constituent wishes to bring together a small
number of friends and neighbours (maybe around twelve) to meet me in
relaxed surroundings, I would be happy to make myself available. A range
of topics and questions could be raised. I have often found this a
friendly and instructive type of discussion in which people find it
comfortable to express their views.
Anyone who would be interested in trying to arrange such a meeting in
the constituency is invited to ring my constituency office on 01799
506349, or email
office@saffronwaldenconservatives.com.
