Hampshire East runs up the A3 Portsmouth road, from the towns of Waterlooville and Horndean to Petersfield and stretches across country to include Alton. These small towns, together with the surrounding villages are all comfortably affluent and will supply the Conservative candidate with a very safe majority.
