With the election just two days away, a group from the National Convention – the senior team of the voluntary Conservative Party – descended on Wyre Forest to help get out those last messages to local voters.

Andrew Mitchell, the Conservative International Development shadow, visited Kidderminster to support Mark's local campaign. Congratulating the local team on an impressive campaign, Andrew later met with a group of local residents to discuss Conservative proposals on support for developing nation.

The team were out today in Kidderminster, meeting shoppers on a rainy morning in the street market. Despite the weather, the mood was good for the Conservatives, with many people stopping to pass on their best wishes. Importantly, many people are coming up to Mark and the team to pledging their support having switched from voting for Labour or Independent last time. There are even many people who will be voting for the first time pledging their support to Conservatives.
