The results from "grassroots members" if adopted by DC as the main attack points would result in a loss in any election. Yes these issues are important but must be part of a package and not overly focussed on.
See below from Con Home:
Grassroots members support return to traditional Tory policies in Blackpool
- Grassroots members would like to see a manifesto that reduces taxation, increases prison places, increases funding for the armed forces, scraps ID cards and delivers English votes for English laws.
- Members disagree with Tory promises to match Labour's spending promises. By more than two-to-one they would like less spending and more of the 'proceeds of growth' to be shared between lower taxation and lower borrowing.
- 55% of members would like to see a bigger emphasis on immigration within Tory campaigning. The same proportion fear that the party's policy position on higher green taxation is a voter loser.
The above are just same old same old. There is more to life for most people than immigration, tax and law and order.
DC will not focus on the above at conference but he will talk about them which should at least keep the "grassroots" happy.
