I went to the Earley Conservatives annual summer BBQ last night. I think it was a first for me at an outdoor event this summer, as it was both warm and dry. It was well attended and we all had an enjoyable evening, with the extra pleasure of breaking off to see Mo successfully go for gold a second time this Olympics during the course of the cooking.
The main issues raised with me were the perennial topics of this website – jobs, savings, the cost of living, high public spending and our relationship with the EU. The Leader of Wokingham Borough Council was also present and listening to views on local development and services.
