Its not exactly a hot bed of Militancy though - From Wikipedia
Newbury is a United Kingdom House of Commons constituency consisting of Newbury, Thatcham, Hungerford and a large part of the surrounding area of West Berkshire. To the east, parts of West Berkshire have been incorporated into the Wokingham or Reading West constituencies. It is part of the South East region of England.

It is currently represented by Richard Benyon, Conservative, who won the seat in the 2005 general election from David Rendel of the Liberal Democrats.

So what? They went in.

Well, you know what will happen.

When they start getting moved around, hours everywhere, covering sick/absence/holidays. When they retire and complain about their pensions.

Etc Etc.

Might hit home then.

Too little too late Newbury.
