Forest at the ConHome conference
Further to my previous post, the main reason I attended the ConHome conference on Saturday was to promote the latest phase of the Hands Off Our Packs campaign.
Venue was the Institute of Mechanical Engineers at One Birdcage Walk, close to Parliament Square.
We booked a stand and were given a position just outside the marble hall and gallery on the lower ground floor where delegates were served morning coffee, lunch and afternoon tea.
We unveiled our new campaign banners, distributed flyers and other information, and invited delegates to sign a letter to David Cameron opposing plain packaging.
I'm pleased to say our campaign attracted a lot of interest. Visitors to the stand included Simon Richards, director of The Freedom Association (pictured above); Oliver Cooper, national chairman of Conservative Future; and the great Harry Phibbs who hung on to his marginal seat on Hammersmith and Fulham Council last week while fellow Tories in safer seats were biting the dust.
In the main theatre where the key speeches and debates were taking place every delegate was given a 'No, Prime Minister' campaign pack to read and digest.
I'll have more information about the campaign, and how you can help, later this week. Watch this space.

Watchout that's the only place Stanton Glantz could actually make a educated study in his true field!
