I HAVE MY LOCAL CANDIDATE!

Eastleigh's UKIP candidate Ray Finch has agreed to let me follow him on the campaign trail.

Finch is not happy about plans to build 6,000 new homes in the area.

"We don't need them. The immigration that we have in this country is taking up the new homes", he said.

He blames this on being part of the EU.

"Once we are an independent sovereign nation, [housing] will not be an issue", he added.

He also wants to bring manufacturing jobs back to Eastleigh.

"The manufacturing industry has been sold down the river for the past sixty years by old parties".

He is up against Chris Huhne (Lib Dem), Maria Hutchings (Con) and Leo Barraclough (Labour).
