On Friday evening, I held my latest 'Sam Direct' event at the Farmhouse Pub in Horley. Great to see around 25 people there and thanks to the Landlord, Jerry Hudson for drumming up interest. The evening provided a good opportunity for people to raise their concerns with me in an informal setting and many took the opportunity to do so. We covered lots of different topics but among the specific issues raised were the rise in women's pension age, NHS pensions and local planning and development issues. It was a really enjoyable evening and thanks to Jerry at the Farmhouse Pub for hosting the event.
