NB: the feature on Daniel starts 50 minutes in to the programme.If you were present at the
free spirits bash in Cheltenham, which
Daniel described on his blog as
"a hugely enjoyable drinks party", you'll know that both he and
Roger Helmer MEP gave superb speeches. If not, don't worry - you can
watch both speeches, together with dozens of other exclusive videos, on
The Freedom Association YouTube channel.
You can also
see more than thirty photographs of the event on
The Freedom Association Flickr channel.
The Freedom Association was delighted to join forces with Conservative Future on this occasion. CF, under Michael Rock's leadership, has been doing great work on freedom issues and I was pleased to join Michael and other CF members petitioning against identity cards, in Cheltenham High Street, with
Mark Coote, the excellent Tory PPC for Cheltenham.
The Freedom Association is a cross-party organisation and, as a result, is free to take on issues without fear or favour - as it has done with its
BETTER OFF OUT campaign, to which both Daniel Hannan (a TFA Council Member) and Roger Helmer (our Hon. Chairman), were founder signatories. Nigel Farage MEP is the guest speaker at
our next event, in London, on 13 May.
Murdo Fraser MSP, Deputy Leader of the Scottish Conservatives, will be the guest speaker at
the next free spirits event - on the
Scottish Conservative Party Conference Fringe in Perth on Thursday 14 May - at which we will celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of Margaret Thatcher's historic 1979 General Election victory. I do hope you will be able to join me there.
