North West Conference- speaking up for Halton

On Saturday, I addressed the Conservative Party's North West Conference to speak in support of the Mersey Gateway project in Halton.

I reiterated my support for this vital regeneration project and spoke about the important role the next Conservative government will play in ensuring the project is delivered on time and within budget to get value for money for the taxpayer. I also reiterated the importance of ensuring the public enquiry supports a fair deal on tolls for the people of Halton. The event was also attended by William Hague, George Osborne, and Party Chairman, Eric Pickles.
