Watford
I went to help Ian Oakley out with a day of campaigning in Watford. It’s a three way marginal and as I may have mentioned before, my MP has encouraged me to help out in our neighbouring constituency.
My seat, South West Herts, is a solid seat so trying to build the wider Conservative base across our region is just as important as keeping our local voters in touch. Fortunately, David Gauke is a very popular MP so we can afford to help our ‘next door’.
I missed the lunch but I hear we had a good turnout from across the Herts and London, with the newly elected North West London Chairman, Oliver Cooper, shoring up the numbers.
