The general election in Epsom & Ewell saw Chris Grayling returned for a third term as our Member of Parliament. Chris polled 30,868 votes which was an increase of 3,722 on his 2005 tally. He gained a spectacular 56.2% of the total vote, an increase of 1.8% on the last election. In doing so Chris secured the best result for the Conservatives in the constituency since 1992.
It's no suprise that after nine years as our hard working member of parliament that Chris gained such a thumping endorsement from his constituents. I wish him all the best in his new role as Minister of State within the Department of Work and Pensions.
