CPF Update
Our first CPF debate took place on 22nd February 2017 in which 21 members and supporters came together to discuss the Cost of Living and ways in which the Government should/could help to reduce the costs or limit their increase. There were some varied views in what was an enjoyable event. You can download a copy of our Association’s submission and the Government’s response on the right (below for mobile users).

What do you discuss?
Other than issues requested by the Government, groups can choose to hold meetings to discuss legislation currently being considered by Parliament, specific local concerns or a current Government consultation. We then report our conclusions to the local MP and/or other local elected representatives for a response or consideration for policy.
Who can join?
Our CPF is open to all members of the Conservative Party in Medway. Non-members are welcome attend our meetings, however we ask that they are supporters of the Party and/or they are known by a member of the Party in any of the three Medway constituencies. if you are not a member but would like to join the Conservatives then you can join us online.
