There’s an open hustings planned for the Newbury Constituency candidates – it’s being hosted by Christians Together in the Newbury Area this Saturday 24th April, from 1930 to 2100 at St Nicolas Church Hall. Newbury Weekly News editor Brien Beharrell will be chairing the session.
In a very positive step for a local campaign, the hustings will feature all seven candidates – not just those from the major parties. I think it’s great that the smaller parties and independent candidates also get the chance to put their views forward! Having said that I hope Brien will be able to keep things moving along swiftly, so there’s a chance to cover a good range of questions.
If you’re interested and would like to attend & ask a question, CTNA are asking people to email them with your question in advance. Do get involved – it’s one of the few opportunities we have to ask questions of those who seek to represent us in Parliament!
