Who am I? I’m a chartered accountant with a career in industry which has allowed me to travel all over Britain.

Full statement

I have a huge love of golf and particularly like playing on the Western Gailes and Prestwick courses. I enjoy watching football and think of myself as an ordinary guy who is fed up of the lies and repeated failures of the major parties. We need Reform!

Why am I standing for ReformUK?

Reform UK is the only political party that is committed to scrapping Net Zero. Ordinary members of the public are the people who must pay ridiculously higher fuel prices to fund the various schemes to reduce our carbon footprint, even as China pumps ever more emissions into the atmosphere. We offshore our problems instead of dealing with them.

The war on the motorist is another of these elite schemes. LTNs, low emission zones, 15-minute cities, speed cameras, inflated parking charges, all this takes ever more money off the average road user, as they dodge the potholes. Next it will be road pricing with even more charges and even more cameras. But who has seen any improvement in public transport as people are forced out of their cars? Scrapping Net Zero will also help us gain Energy and Food Independence.

I am horrified at the continual attack on Free Speech especially by SNP and Labour. Recent governments have sat and watched as universities, schools, the media, the public sector, and big companies, have been taken over by woke bigots who decide what you are allowed to say in public and in even your own home in Scotland under the shelved Named Person Scheme and enacted in the Hate Crime Bill. This is an assault on the liberty which we in this country have enjoyed for hundreds of years. Reform is tired of identity politics, and stands up for the right of ordinary, decent people to think and speak as they wish.

Please vote for me and together we can make Great Britain into a country we can all be proud to call home.
