Political Landscapes:Huw Merriman MP

Published: Oct. 11, 2021, 8:03 p.m.

Huw Merriman may be a Conservative MP now \u2013 but as a teenager, he had to come out to his staunchly socialist parents. Maybe that\u2019s why he doesn\u2019t have time for what he calls the \u2018pie throwing\u2019 of Parliamentary politics.\nIn this hilly ramble down from Burwash to Batemans in his Bexhill and Battle constituency, Huw talks about why transport gets him out of bed in the morning, where he wants to put bees in the Houses of Parliament, and whether he\u2019s planning a supergroup with his celebrity constituents.
