Binley is at least a local man who's lived in the constituency for 20+ years. I'm not in his constituency now but was in the past when it was held by Michael Morris. We're now in Daventry following boundary changes.
Like Mrs M he's not my cup of tea politically. I have however met him via his interest in Northampton's rail links. Very effective at chairing meetings and was able to leverage meetings with transport minister. He also forged a good working relationship with the outgoing North MP, labour's Sally Keeble, who previously carried the lantern for rail service.
From the pov of getting local stuff done I've a deal of respect for him.
Next set of boundary changes put us in South Northamptonshire. Nothing I've seen or heard about it's member, Andrea Leadsom, gives me any reason to extend same respect to her.
