Spencer was originally born in London and moved to Hampshire over 20 years ago for a better life for his children.He is a father of 4 and recently became a Grandad in February 2020. He is an investigator for a Global IT company where he has been employed for the last 23 years. He is very interested in Politics and was involved in the Vote Leave campaign as he believes the UK has a much better future under its own rule without the interference of Brussels. From a local perspective, he feels that the Basingstoke Councillors that represent the main Political Parties are not at all independent and just tow the line in relation to what they say and what they do. He feels these Councillors are not working in the best interests of the people they are there to represent. Basingstoke is a growing town and without the right representation at a local level, there are likely to be decisions made that are not favourable to the residents of this great town. Being an Independent Councillor means there is no higher power to obey and the words and actions that he takes will be for the people and not for the Political Party.
