Let's be honest.

Full statement

People are tired of the old way of doing politics, tired of being let down.

That’s why my campaign, and this website, are built on a simple promise: no spin, just substance. You won't find polished photos with Westminster insiders or a page of carefully-selected endorsements.

You'll find me. Simple, honest, and ready to work.

And the honesty starts here.

I didn't plan to stand for selection here. But when I saw that two of your shortlisted candidates had withdrawn, I knew I could not stand by. Politics should be about showing up and fighting for people, especially when they've been failed by those who came before.

So I'm here now, because you deserve a candidate who is committed. I'm not looking for a title, I'm looking to serve. My pledge is to earn your trust, and be the dedicated champion this constituency needs.

I'm a party member who believes our communities deserve a representative who listens more than they talk and serves the people, not their own career. This is the start of that mission. Here you can find out what I stand for and why I'm asking for your support.

Let's build Wales and our communities up together.

My passion for helping people comes from a deep-seated belief that everyone deserves a fair chance to succeed. I've seen firsthand how systemic barriers, rather than a lack of talent, can hold people back, and it fuels my determination to fight for a fairer society. This isn’t just a political slogan for me, it’s a personal conviction that our strength lies in our ability to support one another. I am driven by the idea that when we work together, we can make a real difference and create lasting, positive change that has wide-reaching effects for our families and our communities. It is this core belief in the power of collective action and a commitment to justice that motivates me to serve.

Brycheiniog Tawe Nedd is a constituency of contrasts, a unique amalgamation of rural, agricultural heartlands and proud, post-industrial towns and valleys. To represent it effectively requires a candidate who doesn't just understand this divide but has lived on both sides of it. My wide range of experiences makes me a perfect fit. My time as a farm worker, dealing with cattle and the daily demands of agriculture , has given me a genuine understanding of the challenges facing our farming communities in Powys. As an electrician working on the tools , I understand the importance of skilled trades, the state of our housing, and the economic realities of our post-industrial areas in Neath and Swansea. And as someone who lives in and serves our valleys, I know the strength of our communities and the support they need to thrive. I am not a candidate who needs to be briefed on these different worlds; I have direct, hands-on experience in them, which makes me uniquely equipped to be a strong, authentic voice for every single person in this diverse constituency.
