Hi Henry!
well done with this! I know from Graham Wright that you have been thinking of going to the telecanvassing training next Tuesday between 6.30 and 9.00 pm. I went to the session this afternoon and it was very interesting. One point that was raised was that young members like yourself should be given a list of young electors (which can be quite easily extracted from EARS) so that youth issues can be addressed more knowledgably and because of differences in style. So I do hope you can make it on Tuesday.
See you in Harrogate?
Yours,
James
i really do....you're sitting next to me!
i love you
