	Tories' Great Black Hope a True Blue
		Afriyie himself may be outwardly different from the archetypal Tory MP, but many of his views are true blue suggesting his instincts are with the traditionalist wing of the party.
		Afriyie ducked a question of whether he would personally take a stand against any Tory who made racist remarks, instead stressing he opposed racism of every form and saying that every party had members who held such views.
		Cynics might say Afriyie's own selection is token as the Conservatives are desperate to be seen as more diverse, but he roundly rejected that view and said he had achieved his success on merit.

	Conservative Future - News - Talented and fresh
		In the platform on which Afriyie stood as a candidate, there was a strong focus on areas which new Labour are notably weak and which the Conservatives can exploit in the next few years: a pro-business, anti-bureaucracy emphasis, with an a guiding principle of allowing people control of their lives.
		Afriyie was not, however, unique among candidates in promoting these messages, but hat may make him a standout performer in this parliament is his personal background and qualities.
		Afriyie is a successful self-made businessman of Ghanaian immigrant descent, from a relatively humble background.

	Black In Britain Feature: Election throws up five Black MPs (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		TECHNOLOGY MILLIONAIRE ADAM AFRIYIE became the first Black MP in the history of the Conservative party last week.
		Despite riding anti-immigration ticket the Tories reportedly fronted almost 40 Black prospective parliamentary candidates this time round, so for Afriyie to have come through and be gifted the relatively safe Windsor seat and hold it with a rather large majority, does mean he’s doing something right.
		Perhaps it’s a little too early to give him real responsibility, but rest assured any party that has no scruples about touting an anti-immigration policy will not shy away from shoving their one and only Black member of parliament into the forefront.
