2010 has been dubbed the year for change by the Conservatives and people across the country, not least by students in Surrey who on Saturday 6th February visited the new state of the art Conservative Campaign centre GenEVA based at CCHQ in London. More students than ever before are supporting the Conservatives as it is clear that the other political parties do not represent realistic options for the future.

For many students this will be their first time voting and in this election students issues will be at the forefront. The Conservatives have policies on every issue affecting the country locally, nationally and internationally, but what exactly are they and how will they help students? If the Conservatives win the next general election they have promised to create an additional 10,000 University places, and will introduce an early repayment bonus on student loans.

Whilst at GenEVA the team phoned hundreds of people to seek their views on the local community and what they want to see from the next Government. What was clear to me when speaking with people is that David Cameron really is the man of choice for the vast majority. The Conservatives have already been proving themselves in Councils across the country and now is our chance to prove then same in National Government.

With a General Election not far off the team in Surrey are stepping up the pace to do their bit in helping turn the country blue. We are always on the lookout for new members and people that want to get involved, you can find out more at http://surrey.cfbranch.com/.
