Sir John Major in Rugby

Former Prime Minister Sir John Major was our speaker at Rugby Conservatives Annual Dinner on Friday evening. Sir John said that The Conservatives should look forward with confidence to the next General Election as the current Government had dashed the hopes of a generation through their mismanagement, false claims and their evasion of responsibility. He also spoke about broader issues including the effects of population growth in their future affecting the world's food supply, climate change and a shift in world power from west to east. He took a variety of questions including the current economic situation and (predictably) correctly answered a test question about the laws of cricket to enable a bet to be won between two guests. He was personable and mixed freelyamong those attending who enjoyed really good evening. Photos to follow!
