Immediate past leader of the Conservative Party & the last Conservative Home Secretary, the Rt. Hon. Michael Howard QC MP, today visited Brierley Hill to meet local voters with Chris Kelly, Prospective Conservative MP for Dudley South.
The pair have a long-standing friendship & Chris even worked for Mr Howard whilst he was Leader of the Opposition.
The former Cabinet Minister was keen to talk to local residents who will soon be making an important choice about who to vote for in the forthcoming General Election. Mr Howard's message was clear: We need change in our country and we can't afford four more years of Gordon Brown.
Top concerns raised with the former crime busting Home Secretary included law & order, immigration, the economy and jobs.
Chris commented: "It was great to have my friend & old boss, Michael Howard, campaigning with me in Dudley South. We had a very warm reception on Brierley Hill High Street & in the market. Michael is a big hitter in politics - it was incredible to see just how many people recognised him & wanted to meet him. He was more than happy to listen to their concerns but his overall message was clear: Vote for change by voting for Chris Kelly, your local Conservative candidate.''
