Spectator poll at Brighton

As last year, we are once again conducting a confidential poll of all those attending this week's Conservative party conference. Its purpose is to elicit the opinions of the Tories' ' own supporters on the conference itself—its success or failure, on the issues debated (or not debated) and on the Conservative party itself. We are grateful to those who take part in the poll by filling in the brief questionnaire distributed at the conference: since anonymity is being preserved we can- not thank them individually. The results will be. published and analysed in full in neil week's SPECTATOR.
