There are many reasons to join a political party, so why join the Conservatives and not any other. Conservatives believe in the rights and freedoms of the individual, the right to aspire to a better life and to maintain the traditions and values that you are familiar with. Conservatives also believe that we have a right to speak your mind and share your views; and in turn we will listen to others. We may or may not agree with each other some of the time, but we respect the fact that others may hold different points of views. This listening to others helps us understand what is happening around us and enables us to fix problems, resolve disputes and build a better future. This also helps us overcome intolerance and single mindedness, which creates for a more harmonious environment, whilst adhering to our conservative values and traditions.
