We caught up with Isle Of Wight MP Mr Bob Seely back in June this year to explore his love of the Island and in the process uncovered much more than we bargained for. When is England's largest Island not an Island? When it's the Isle of Wight apparently, or at least that was the view in Westminster until the Island's MP, Bob Seely, together with the Isle of Wight Council started to fight for change. If you have always wondered what the Isle of Wight's MP does, and what motivates him, listen in for some answers and insight.
