Political Landscapes: Tim Loughton MP
Tim Loughton meets Ben Weisz in Shoreham By Sea for a ramble down to the fort.
Ambling along the Adur river this week with East Worthing and Shoreham MP Tim Loughton.
We discuss his burgeoning acting career, which noises to make in Parliament, and pick out our favourite houseboats.
But in a month where MPs’ second jobs have come under intense scrutiny, Tim defends his work outside Parliament – explaining why he feels it adds value to his constituents, his work and the children his employers help.
And after a stressful few years in Westminster – is Parliament’s mindfulness champion still finding time to cogitate in the bath?
