It’s been a week and a bit since we asked CoffeeHousers to put forward their questions for Eric Pickles. We’ve since picked out a selection, and they’ve now been put to the Tory chairman. He’ll get back to us next week.
Anyway, here are the questions:
Hugh
How would a Conservative government reform the expenses system?
DM
Do you NOW understand why so many of the Question Time audience reacted as they did to you?
Nicholas
What exactly, if anything, will a Conservative government do to reverse and rectify the increasingly intrusive powers of the state and the erosion by the New Labour hegemony of the traditional freedoms, protections and privacy once enjoyed by all the English people? The answer to this question will be paramount to my voting intentions.
John Ward
Those of us who know you or know of you are well aware of your personal integrity and your determination.
