Speaking of his campaign, he told Nub News: "When the election was called and parliament dissolved, we immediately began to put together my schedule for visiting as many communities as possible across our 900 square mile constituency and meeting as many people as possible. In any campaign, it's particularly vital to spend the very limited time with those who are as yet undecided as to who they'd like in 10 Downing Street, so I arranged innumerable campaign events, meetings and door-knocking sessions alongside many local people and volunteers."
