Cameron goes direct

18 June 2008 | Comments: 0 , , , ,

The Tories' latest engagement initiative, Cameron Direct takes its 'town hall meeting' roadshow to a Plymouth primary school tonight. The event will be broadcast live, and then 'on demand', in video via the UK-based SelfCast.com. It also looks like they'll be liveblogging the event through, guess what, CoverItLive. I'm not entirely sure it's worth doing both, unless they're planning on involving the liveblog-watchers in the proceedings somehow..? Proceedings start at 6.30pm, and should be done in time for kick-off in tonight's football.

Here's the recording of last week's event in Truro. Whether you like Cameron or not, you have to admit he's very good at this sort of thing.
