“I have been the Leader of the Conservative Group at Derbyshire County Council since 2007 and, with my Group, have worked hard to develop some exciting policies and goals for the County Council with the aim of taking control at the County and European elections on 4th June 2009. On 5th May we launched our Manifesto and a full version of it is to be found here:

Derbyshire Conservatives Manifesto

“Labour have been in power in Derbyshire for 28 years. That is too long and there is a clear need for a change. Not only would we bring fresh faces to running key public services in Derbyshire, we would bring fresh ideas too and our web-site is a great way of bringing them to you.

“This site will grow as we get closer to the election, with news, added links and policy statements; please do come back and see what we have added from time to time.

“To contact us please send an e-mail to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . We look forward to hearing from you.”
