Beating the Liberals in Cornwall

This week Mark Prisk MP came to speak to the Spelthorne Conservatives.
Here’s a man who made it up through the ranks, starting out as “press officer” for the Young Conservatives in Cornwall, the lowest rung on the ladder. He is now Shadow Minister for Cornwall.
This involves beating the Liberals. They have all five MPs, but the Conservatives won control of the new Cornwall unitary authority this year. Five of the six new Cornwall constituencies are now target seats, with the Liberals likely to hang on only in St Ives at the far tip.
Thanks to Eric Pickles, who shut down the LibDem unit at Central Office, and ever since we stopped attacking them we’ve started winning.
