It was a pity the recent hustings at St John the Baptist Church in High Barnet could not have been held in more neutral surroundings.
The questions, supplied by the parish council, were not of significantly wide appeal.
But most importantly, no time was allowed from questions from the floor, especially lamentable, as these were the only hustings to be held in the Chipping Barnet constituency.
A large number of people attended the meeting, many of whom feel passionately about the issues on which they would like to have raised questions and to have taken a more active part in the proceedings.
