Annual
Conference of Master Innholders at the Savoy Hotel
20 Jan 2004
I am
delighted to have the opportunity to address you today as Shadow
Minister for Tourism about the challenges facing the tourism industry.
I hope to cover what we, in our Shadow DCMS Team under Julie Kirkbride,
believe are some of the key concerns of your industry and at the same
time give you a greater understanding of the Conservative approach to
these issues. May I also take this opportunity to pay tribute to my
predecessor in this post, John Greenway, for all the work he did with
and for the tourism industry.
Local Government
Authority conference on cultural services
March 18, 2003
Thank you
for inviting me to this conference - I’m delighted to be here today. I
would like to address, in the limited time I have available, just a
couple of themes that I believe tie in with the overarching themes of
your Conference.
COUNCIL
TAX - CAMBRIDGESHIRE
March 25, 2002
March ... The thud
of the Council Tax Bill through the letterbox last week will have
produced for many people (particularly pensioners) the biggest
financial shock in a long time. The immediate reaction will be to take
it out on the Council that sent out the bill (in this case Fenland),
but the bulk of the bill is made up of expenditure by Cambridgeshire
County Council for vital services such as social services, education
and transport.
New Year Message from Malcolm
Moss MP
December 31, 2000
MARCH...How
was it for you? - the Millennium experience of course! This was
supposed to be the most special of years, as if a year ending in three
0’s was somehow more significant than any other.
No Future for the Farming
Community without Government Support
November 29, 2000
WESTMINSTER...As
part of my role as an Opposition Spokesman on Agriculture and Fishing
I make visits to various parts of the country to meet and discuss with
farmers and fishermen their problems and concerns. Over the last few
months I have been to Devon and Cornwall, Northumberland and North
Wales, places as far removed from our Fens landscape as you could wish
to find.
Tony Blair's Intentions
Questionable
European Union Intergovernmental Conference
November 14, 2000
WESTMINSTER...The
country seems to have been hit with a number of problems of late. The
fuel tax issue has raised its head again with the Chancellor
attempting to head off public support for the protestors by doing a
u-turn on policy (freezing future tax increases for two years and
offering tax reductions on environmentally-friendly low sulphur fuel);
the incessant rainfall of the last two months has lead to very severe
flooding in many different parts of the country which has opened up
the debate on global warming again; the Hatfield rail crash
precipitated an unprecedented inspection of all major rail track and a
huge repair programme which has brought real chaos to the rail
timetable; and the debacle of the Dome just seems to run and run with
ever-embarrassing revelations of who was responsible for what.
The Government turns to Private
Health Sector for an eleventh hour 'BAIL OUT'
November 1, 2000
WESTMINSTER...This
week’s announcement by the Government that it intends to make
further use of the private health sector will have come as a bit of a
shock to their traditional supporters as well as those who were lead
to believe that Labour’s policy was ‘NHS good – private health
bad’.
The Government is Unwilling
to Pay the Right Price for Effective Law and Order
October 13, 2000
MARCH...I
took a telephone call at the Constituency Office the other day from a
retired constituent (an ex-policeman to be exact) who wished to
register a complaint against the Cambridgeshire Police whom he had
occasion to telephone three times in one evening because of
intimidation and harassment in his own home by a gang of youths from
his own village – calls that brought no response!
Power Resides with the
People, not with Politicians
Fuel Crisis Proves It!
September 20, 2000
WESTMINSTER...We
are all familiar with the question "Where were you daddy when
……" which is synonymous with momentous events such as the
death of President Kennedy or the landing of the first man on the moon
etc.
Prospective Labour
Parliamentary Candidate joined the ranks of the "thought
police"
Declared "A" Levels too Easy
September 5, 2000
MARCH...It
is no wonder that Labour Party spokesmen choose to concentrate on
educational issues rather than the other two " flagship"
manifesto commitments of the Health Service and law and order.
Media "Silly Season"
Stories
Wake Up to the Reality
August 23, 2000
MARCH...There
is a widely accepted truism that the summer holiday months constitute
the " silly season" as far as the media news stories are
concerned. Just when I thought that some sign of sanity was returning
there have been a number of stories which will confirm to those who
think the world has gone completely mad that it has indeed done so.
The Government Wants to Turn
Back the Clock to 1979
High Taxes - Big Government - Reckless
Spending
August 2, 2000
WESTMINSTER...A
few weeks ago the Chancellor revealed the results of his Comprehensive
Spending Review. As I have pointed out many times in articles such as
this there was always going to be a substantial pot of money to
distribute to the various government departments. This is because New
Labour have relentlessly raised taxes since coming into office.
Labour's
New Methods Prove to be Old Ways
November 29, 2000
WESTMINSTER...If an employer offered an
employee an increase in salary of £6,000 over three years that
employee could be forgiven in thinking that he or she would be £6,000
p.a.better off at the end of the period than a t the beginning.
Averaging the increase out you would be looking at £2000 extra each
year.
Conservatism Stands for the
‘UNITED’ United Kingdom
November 12, 1999
WESTMINSTER...Despite
what the Prime Minister believes the forces of conservatism seem alive
and kicking at the moment. First of all we had the republicans routed
by the royalists in the constitutional referendum in Australia. How
ironic that the Australian rugby captain (a staunch republican)
received the Rugby World Cup from Her Majesty the day after the result
was announced. Then the Queen enjoyed an ecstatic welcome in Ghana on
the occasion of their state opening of Parliament. No lack of
enthusiasm for a constitutional monarch there!
Something
Not Quite Right
Consumers
Denied Choice
Winter 1999
WESTMINSTER...I
admit to being puzzled these last two weeks about a series of events
which affect all our lives, both directly and indirectly. First of
all, I can't understand why beef-on-the-bone produced in this country
is deemed a serious danger to my health, whereas any type of beef
imported from France, now proven to have been fed on reconsituted
animal and human sewage, is pronounced safe.
