Conservative MP Candidate for Havant Alan Mak joined local Havant Borough councillors Mike Fairhurst, Yvonne Weeks and Frida Edwards in Leigh Park on 7 November. This was Alan’s first visit anywhere in the constituency since his selection by local residents at the Open Primary public selection meeting.  

Alan Mak selected by Havant's residents and voters in a US Style Open Primary to be the Conservative MP candidate for the 2015 general election.

Businessman, investor and children’s campaigner Alan Mak said he was “delighted and honoured” to have been selected by the Havant Conservative Party’s Executive Committee to contest the Open Primary Final where local residents will choose Havant’s next MP. The Open Primary Final takes place on Saturday 25 October at Oaklands Catholic School from 2PM.

At Conservative Party Conference 2012, the Prime Minister spoke passionately about creating an “aspiration nation”, not for the better-off but for the “want-to-be-better-off, those who strive to make a better life for themselves and their families.” This is an inspiring vision and a Conservative vision. 

In the UK, rising income disparity and failing social mobility are a cause for concern, and a threat to our social fabric and national wellbeing, as well as our Party’s electoral fortunes. The 2012 World Economic Forum Annual Meeting also focused on these themes.

Whilst restoring Britain’s public finances and securing economic growth is the Coalition’s most pressing short-term priority, building the Opportunity Society is our party’s most important long-term task, and should form the basis of a distinctive Conservative platform for the 2015 general election.
