The rain held off as S Dorset went to the polls. I began the day on Portland Bill, before dropping in on the Coastwatch tower to thank the volunteers for all that they do. I did the same thing at the beginning of the last two elections and is now a routine.

Out and about. Nearly there! Everyone to polling booths tomorrow. 

Out and about all day.

Final week of the general election - my third in seven years. And, as usual, I was out and about all day meeting prospective constituents. A lot of useful and helpful feedback on a huge range of issues. My final evening Drax Direct in Studland Village Hall. Well attended. 

I am truly shocked and sickened this morning at the news of yet another attack on innocent people in London. It's reported that seven people are dead and nearly 50 injured. It beggars belief how anyone could behave like this.

The Prime Minister said in Downing Street this morning:

In the Square in Weymouth again. Lots of encouraging feedback on a warm, sunny morning. Lunch with some supporters and then out all afternoon on the doorstep.  

Out and about, ending with a Drax Direct in Briantspuddle. 

Again, out all day, ending up in Swanage for another hustings, this time hosted by the Emmanuel Baptist Church in Swanage. It was a well-attended and organised evening, which lasted about two hours. We were asked 8 questions, which took in the NHS, education and social care.  

This morning, I hopped on my motorbike and headed to Dorchester to take part in a BBC radio hustings with my three political opponents. Like last time, each one of us had about a minute to answer questions put to us.
