Meeting with David Cameron to put the case for our College
01/03/2010 by Steve Barclay.
I had a meeting with David Cameron this week-end at the Conservative Party Spring Conference to put the case for the new campus for the College of West Anglia.
It was an opportunity to build on the positive announcement last week by Fenland District Council Leader Alan Melton that £1.5 million would be made available to try and resurrect the campus, after Labour cuts last year scrapped it just a month before building work was due to begin.
Cynically, the current Government gave the go ahead to just 13 colleges nationwide, with all 13 being located within Labour constituencies.
Whilst David Cameron was never going to be in a position to comment on the specific plans locally, he recognised the importance of the College as a catalyst for growth and in driving better socially mobility here in North Cambridgeshire and was supportive of what we are trying to do. It is good to have his engagement on this, and a useful discussion which I can now follow up with our education team.

Dinner for the Party Leader
19/03/2008 by Steve Barclay.
Dinner for the Party Leader is not something to mess up! Head over to the Carlton Club for a meeting to discuss how the preparation is going. As Chairman of the Organising Committee I am helping to arrange this annual fundraising evening to raise funds for our target seats. It is held at The Dorchester in London each year just before the Party Conference, and last year we raised over £200,000.
With David Cameron attending as the main speaker, together with almost all the Shadow Cabinet and their partners, it would not be good career move to get it wrong. Fortunately there is a great committee in place and a superb organiser in Lucy Lermer who has been involved for a number of years. My role is simply to help with the paperwork and planning. Tonight is our first committee meeting, and with the improved political climate compared to this time last year we are looking to break all previous records.
