The independent parliamentary candidate for Reading West and Mid Berkshire is a former Lib Dem councillior for West Berkshire Council.

Adrian Abbs now sits as an independent and was one of the first to throw his hat in the ring for the new constituency seat.

“A few more weeks and people will pass judgement on those that have been in power and the promises they made. I ask for your vote as something different from the rest.”

He says he is the common-sense option focussed on the constituency and not parties.

I can and will work with whoever wins the majority and help create a UK with a positive future,” he said.

“The parties running campaigns are busy fighting against each other, whereas my focus is fighting for you and the constituency. I believe anyone can win this new ward, so I ask you to vote with your heart, change the type of MPs we get.

“For the record I have lived locally for 25 years, run a small business in West Berkshire, intend to place the MPs office somewhere central like Theale, and will run surgeries during my time as MP around the whole constituency.”
