00:00 So Ella, tell me what's the feeling that you have out there, how things are going?

00:07 Well I've been campaigning for many months now with local Conservatives in Fairham and

00:15 I have absolute confidence in the local team here in Fairham, the Conservatives. They've

00:21 run the council for several decades and they've kept council taxes low. We've got one of

00:26 the lowest council taxes in the country and there's been excellent delivery of services,

00:31 whether that's new housing, whether that's well-bored and new infrastructure, whether

00:36 that's delivering the basic services like the bins and the streetlights. There's a huge

00:42 amount of which we can be proud here in Fairham thanks to the Conservatives' successful running

00:48 of it for the last 20 odd years.

00:51 And what is the feeling out there? I know you can't predict the vote but what do you

00:56 think is going to happen? Everybody says it's a very different election this year.

00:59 It's too early to call to be honest. I wish I had a crystal ball. I don't and I've learnt

01:05 after standing in many, many elections over the years, too many to count, that it's a

01:11 very brave person who tries to predict the results. So we all wait until the count is

01:17 confirmed and until the final result is announced.
