Welcome to Alan Collins’ Political Opinions

Hello and welcome to my political blog. Here I hope to keep you both entertained and amused with my opinions and comment, and also up-to-date on both the news nationally and locally in my South-east Constituency of Gillingham and Rainham.
I am a hard-working Conservative Party activist here in Gillingham and Rainham, and to date I have spoken to residents in Rainham Central and Rainham North and Watling.
I am a 17 year-old student, currently studying A-levels in Computing, Physics, Politics and Spanish at Rainham Mark Grammar School, and divide my time sensibly between studying and helping out elected Councillors by delivering leaflets and canvassing.
Feel free to look around and comment or vote in any of the polls which may appear on the left-hand menu. And if you have any issues, please feel free to email me. I reply to all non-spam emails.
