Good evening and welcome to the Pompey Politics Podcast. I'm Ian Tini Morris. And I'm Simon Sandsbury.

Welcome listeners and a change to our originally published episode. Those of you that have a

fascination for voter ID and everything that comes with it,

that one's going to be up in a couple of weeks.

But we had an opportunity too good to miss as longtime friend of the pod,

who we've not spoken to a while, since he took on the dizzying heights

and the role of deputy police and crime commissioner for Hampshire.

So we are joined this evening by Terry Norton.

Evening. Thanks having me.

Welcome to the show.

No, thank you. It's been a while.

It has been a while and again, gone from the hurly burly of local Portsmouth politics,

Absolutely, yeah, yeah, yeah, now indeed.

And we'll get onto that later, I'm sure.

Oh yes. Oh, yes.

So, Terry, would you mind introducing yourself?

and how that relates to the deputy police and crime commissioner?

Absolutely.

So I'm Terry Norton.

I'm the deputy police and Crime Commissioner for Hampshire
