Day One: The Campaign Begins

Day One of the Conservative Future NME campaign. I have already received some excellent support from my fellow copywriters at www.conservativefuture.com

I have been working on the website for the past year, and within the past few months the site has relaunched with a new format. This means that ordinary members or branches can have a feed of articles, written by young conservatives all over the country, that is updated daily. (See link http://www.conservativefuture.com/resources/websitetools.cfm )

It takes a lot of work to coordinate the site, but luckily I share the workload with Richard Jackson. Each of us has a team of twenty or so enthusiastic writers, who come up with the goods every week.

I think that the good start we have made with the website needs to be followed up. In an organisation of 15,000 members, e-campaigning is the future, emulating the success of our counterparts in the US and Europe. I am standing to be elected with the clear aim of expanding the usefulness of the website. When members are spread across the country, having a central point of contact, a focus for the diverse membership in cyberspace is crucial.
