I was born in Chester, and raised in Frodsham where I now live with my wife Nicola and daughter.

Full statement

Having lived and worked in the area for all my life and feel that although most things have deteriorated, they are not lost and believe it is the responsibility of our generation to ensure our values are not forgotten.

I want to bring back the prosperous days of opportunity I had benefited from when working at the Heath for ICI during the 80s and 90s. I advocate having a local, strong industry bringing wealth to the high streets, schools, and communities.

“I have the vision to lead us to a new era of prosperity. I have the will to demand Parliament does not forget Runcorn. I need the support and votes from our people to give me the mandate to do it.”

My mission

1. Everyone deserves a place where they call home. Let's make that a reality for all of our citizens, from the young starters to the growing families and to those wanting to downsize.

2. Everyone deserves a meal and good well-being. I am going to focus on building a sustainable infrastructure which encourages good health to all.

3. Maintain and establish green areas blending nature and manicured environments. Importantly preserve our green belt.

4. Create and develop a tech driven industry welcoming investment, offering apprenticeships, jobs and wealth. This will also encourage further and higher education to setup campus in the area.

I will be campaigning on our streets and welcome people to get involved and let me know what is important to improve their life.
