It looks as if the move of our party headquarters is finally coming to fruition. The opportunity to get some modern offices, maybe with a shopfront, has got to be appealing. The fact is the present buidling is pretty crummy and has no presence to make people realise we are in the Borough at all. It is also badly located if we expect people to come and join us in the weekly stuffing, folding etc. Still the passing of history will be sad but that is progress!!
So let's hope we will find a new premises, located at the heart of the constituency, very soon.

the paty offices move bin going on for years and years .
the move is indefensible if the membership dont move
as for the present buiding havin no present in the borourh
people now it ther it not baly located on the mane road in surbiton. good bus and parkcing
and it is at the heart of surbiton borough
there is a very cruccil choice to be made in the few months this will decice whether you have a future the choice is whether you continue down the cul-de-sac of the last years or choose an alternative . do up the headquaters
move offices in present buiding
as progress can be mad if you go back to tradition conserative
the conservatives had made only 8% progress in ten years in the borough . from holding kingston to a bad opposition .that wot passing of time and history will show ".the party is deeply defective"sir malcolm rifking 14/8/2005
you showed in the last general electon showed that you a bad opposition in the borough
edweard davey and the liberal democrats had a bad year that showed in the general election. but thay still have over 53% of the election in borough
the bad choice to sale off party offices in kington back in the 80's is history
you borough party third general electon defeat is indefensible
you criticised of edward davey is indefensible wen yor own membership say no to a move of premises ,a lot off them have now left yor party
as heed of borough party grop and election canddit in history you tradition have stand down
than for not going as this is good news for all you opposition clerly the membership of you borough party have for got you bad show so very soon

Thanks for your round about history but you are just plain wrong.
I personally believe the error in selling the Kingston HQ was that we did not sell the Surbiton one at the same time.
The Conservatives have not had control of the Borough since 1994 as between 1998/2002 the Council was hung and there was no overall control.All the rest of the time it has been Lib Dem and during those years the Borough has festered ad declined. In the past 12 months alone:
Recycling has declined every year since they took power in 2002.
They introduced means testing for the elderly and disabled on benefits.
They have put at risk almost £8m of Council Tax payers money on a theatre run by a man who has never run a theatre without a subsidy.
Offices will not win elections, policies and vision will and the Conservatives will triumph over the next few years and the Lib Dems will decline in Kingston and the South and like vultures pick up scraps from Labour in the North. (I admit that the vulture reference is not my own but that of Jack Straw) The Lib Dem problem is they stand for nothing and as the last election proved cannot stand on different door steps arguing for different policies if they want to be taken seriously.
We had the biggest swing from the Lib Dems to the Conservatives in the country at the last election. But it was worse than that for the Lib Dems because Ed Davey was leaking votes to all parties and not just us. I am though pleased you think the Lib Dems had a bad year, they certainly did and it will get worse. In fact I gather even the Labour party is using the swing from Davey to Labour as a model for campaigning nationally, it was certainly against the trend. It looks as if Labour mioght be making gains from the Lib Dems next May in the local elections!!
Finally, the Conservatives have never held the seat of Kingston & Surbiton because it was a new seat in 1997 with a radically different make up. It may well be true that this was part of the mistake the party centrally made in not taking the boundary reviews seriously enough.
