‘It is the first time in 30 years of campaigning that I have been bitten but on behalf of all delivery people, can those with vicious dogs, please put something over the letterbox so people are not attacked.

‘Renee Lu, our wonderful candidate in Whiteley was also bitten this afternoon, not by the same dog. Both of us have had to see a doctor and are now on strong antibiotics.’

Ms Lu came second in the Whiteley and Shedfield seat for Winchester City Council with 726 votes, behind Lib Dem Anne Small with 1,175.
