A gardener's pick-up was taken while he was working just yards away.
Marc Nokes, husband of Romsey's Conservative parliamentary candidate Caroline Nokes, had his Nissan Navara pick-up stolen as he worked in Maurys Lane, Romsey.
Mr Nokes said he didn't hear the vehicle being driven off because he was operating loud machinery at the time.
