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.
