Prospective MP Tim Barnes reports back on the first Hustings of the campaign

We spoke to Prospective MP Tim Barnes, after the first hustings of the General Election campaign, held in the City of London. Tim explains

"So we've just finished the first hustings of this election campaign. Thank you very much to all of the candidates who took part. It was a good natured debate, there weren't any particular elements of aggravation or problems. It was wonderful, to see everybody there with such good ideas and such a clear understanding of what it was they wanted to discuss.

"So to every one of the residents who took part, thank you. To the organisers from the Golden Lane Estate Residents Association, thank you very much for putting it on. 

"And for all of the questions that came from nuclear proliferation to the future of the social care system. Thank you. Wonderful topics to have covered, and I hope we answered your questions directly."
