00:00Thank you very much, Mr. Mayor. Thank you very much, Lord Lieutenant.

00:04The last thing you want to hear is another politician speaking, so I'll keep this brief.

00:07I'm very honoured to be your Member of Parliament here in Hazelmere for nearly a year now,

00:13but my connection to Hazelmere goes back a long way.

00:16And I was looking at my family history recently and discovered that my grandfather, Bob Stafford,

00:22was one of two men from Hazelmere who managed to get successfully evacuated from Dunkirk.

00:28So I know that the spirit of VE Day, the spirit of World War II rings loud here in Hazelmere.

00:36So have a fantastic day and God save the King.

00:43Well, thank you.
