Al Pinkerton

Al is a family man, originally from Scotland, who now lives with his wife and two sons in the Heatherside district of Surrey Heath.

He is an Associate Professor at Royal Holloway, University of London with research interests in Geopolitics, Development, Security and Justice Issues. He also has a strong interest in the effects of climate change and its impacts in both the national and international arenas.

"For me, standing for parliament is about serving in the interests of my community, my constituency, and my country. That means working together, across the political spectrum, to share the very best ideas; to think and plan for the long term; and to work justly in the pursuit of a liberal, open, tolerant, accountable, internationalist and successful United Kingdom.

"That starts here and now in Surrey Heath – the place and community where my family and I live."
