what's the big idea?

We are a group of Conservative supporters, campaigning for the modern, liberal Conservative agenda that will lead to a Tory victory at the next General Election.

We support the changes David Cameron is making - and must continue to make - to the Conservative Party so that it remains firmly in the centre-ground of British opinion. We will hold him to his pledge that under his leadership the Conservatives must look, feel, think and behave like a completely new Party.

We want to make sure that Conservatives understand and like modern Britain, and that anyone who wants to see a tolerant, greener, forward-looking and less arrogant government is comfortable supporting the Conservative Party.

We want to see a government that doesn't seek to legislate its way out of problems, that understands that trusting people to run their own lives is how to build stronger people and a stronger society, that supports people's choices and helps Britons make the most of themselves and their communities.

We want our politicians to understand that Britain today is a great place to live but that it could be even better. The way to make it better is not to restrict and restrain but to listen, to engage, to debate - and for people to take responsibility in making sure that our government does the right thing for our whole society.

We're not dogmatic - if something works, politicians should look at why, and help those ideas grow and spread. We believe that politicians have a duty to look to our shared future and to work together on the big issues facing our country.

We're optimistic, because we believe that with David Cameron as Conservative Prime Minister, we can make that happen.

We hope this site will help you understand why today's modern, liberal Conservative Party is right for Britain.

who we are

We're a group of Conservatives who want to see a modern, liberal Conservative government. Platform 10 is not part of the Conservative Party, we're independent. When we post our opinions, they are just that - our own opinions. We don't always agree on everything, even amongst ourselves, but we want to listen to and participate in the debate.
