A former foreign secretary spoke to shopkeepers and householders on a tour of North Harrow.

Hannah David, the Conservative Parliamentary Candidate for Harrow West, welcomed former foreign secretary William Hague on Monday, March 9, with a tour of the businesses and shops of North Harrow.

Mr Hague met with several home owners and business owners to discuss national policies and to listen to their concerns.

Conservative Councillor for Headstone North Ward was also present.

Following the visit, Mrs David said: “I am bringing senior members of the Government to Harrow so that they can listen to the views of our local business people and understand the concerns of our residents.”

“Today was an excellent opportunity for the residents and business people of North Harrow to express their views on the future of our community and on how they would like to see Harrow develop and grow in the future.”
