It was a great opportunity to talk with a large group of constituents this afternoon as part of the ‘Time is Now’ lobby, discussing climate change and what we can do to protect our environment. Thanks to all those who came along.

We have 2 exceptionally talented candidates in the final round and I look forward to listening over the coming weeks to a proper, full and frank debate. I am happy to reveal now that my preference is for Boris.
These two candidates will now go through to a vote decided by Party members.
On Saturday it was that time of year again for one of my favourite events of the constituency calendar – the Worthing Children’s Parade. This was the 12th parade and 12th time I have had the privilege to act as compere welcoming the schools as they processed into Steyne Gardens.
