She's standing for election as the new mayor of Hampshire and Isle of Wight (and will probably win), so I'm not expecting any sensible or sustainable initiatives in the run-up.

A few weeks ago she announced with a headline of "opening three new police stations" but when you read the detail it was just re-opening counters at existing stations.
