Rebecca Pow, Prospective Conservative MP for Taunton Deane, was delighted to welcome Chris Grayling, Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice to Taunton this week.

Chris attended an evening hosted by Clarke Willmott LLP in their Taunton office at Blackbrook Park Avenue. He talked about his political agenda as well as the current justice system to a full audience of local professionals before the floor was opened up for questions.

Chris said, ‘It was a really valuable opportunity to talk about current issues with members of the local legal profession, as well as to explain to others in the local business community about our long term economic plan. I also wanted to throw my weight behind Rebecca's campaign in what will be a crucial constituency for deciding the outcome of the next general election and weather we get the chance to continue that plan.’
