I have lived and worked in the real world, with a successful career outside Parliament. I have worked on farms, in a factory and sold goods door-to-door. After reading law at Cambridge University (M.A., LL.M.) and qualifing as a solicitor I became a Partner in a City of London law firm. I have two grown up children of whom I am immensely proud, and I have recently become a grandfather. The East Surrey constituency has been my home for some years.
As a good listener, I believe that I understand the issues people wish to be addressed but, more importantly, I would like to hear your views.
