Default Conservative Conference March 2022: Blackpool

[Conservatives return to Blackpool]


[Prime minister Boris Johnson is among
the Tory big-hitters due in Blackpool
from Friday as the Winter Gardens makes
a historic return to the political scene.

The Grade II listed landmark once
regularly hosted national party conferences,
but fell out of favour when its ageing facilities failed
to meet modern day standards.
It is nearly 15 years since the last national
party political conference was held in the
resort when the Conservatives met for
their main October gathering in 2007.]

Grant Shapps was live on SkyNewsHD
at this place

Prime Minister due on Saturday.

I wonder if he'll talk about the time in October when he forced his party to vote against the bill banning fire and re-hire

You're right. I'd hate for a tory to ever to be accountable for a single ruinous act they've committed.
