This evening, I was invited to attend a political hustings staged by Churches Together at the Easthampstead Baptist church in Bracknell. It was a well-attended event during which each of the invited candidates got to put forward their positions on a whole array of issues. Special mention must go to Rev. Chris Porter who chaired the meeting magnificently. Indeed, all of the churches involved are to be congratulated for arranging what has turned out to be the only open hustings of the campaign. From my own perspective, I hope that everyone present went away understanding the values and principles that underscore my political views.

Yesterday, I had a wonderful day in the constituency. It started in the High Street in Crowthorne, moved on to the official opening ceremony of the new Baptist Community Centre in Finchampstead (pictured above on an earlier visit), then on to the Town Centre in Bracknell to set up a campaign stand and ended at a fantastic silver band evening performance in Sandhurst. By the end of the day, not only had I undertaken successful campaigning in the towns of Crowthorne and Bracknell, I also had, had the pleasure and privilege of attending two outstanding community events. What is clear to me, is that if I am successful at becoming the next MP for the Bracknell constituency, I will be a very fortunate man.

Today, we introduced our ‘battle bus’ to the local campaign to make me the next MP for the Bracknell constituency. This morning we were out in College Town, this afternoon we visited Hanworth and later on this evening we will be in Harmans Water. Come and join us as we work hard to get rid of Gordon Brown’s Labour government.

Yesterday evening, I was out with my ward team in Great Hollands. And what a fantastic team they proved to be. An impressive effort was made by all which was rewarded with a great response on the doorsteps. We encountered a strongly-held belief that Britain needs real change. What is clear to the majority of people that I meet in Bracknell constituency, is that the changes our great country needs can, and will only, be delivered by a Conservative government.
