Kevin has lived in Hull since 2005, when he moved to Hull to work at the University.

Full statement

I have two children who attended local state schools. I recently retired from the University of Hull where I taught telecommunications engineering. My research area was on the effects of climate change on telecommunications. I co-authored the Committee on Climate Change UK Climate Change Risk Assessment Evidence Reports, presented to parliament in 2017 and 2022. He was secretary of his union branch of the UCU and is current co-coordinator of the Hull and East Riding Green Party. Hull City Council has committed to the city being carbon neutral by 2030. The Council has consistently restated its commitment while doing nothing to achieve it. Other Yorkshire cities are decarbonising while Hull looks ever more backward. Other cities have much better air quality, and far fewer children dying of asthma. Rather than Hull's gridlock, they have electric trams and capped bus ticket prices. Rather than homes on rat-runs, people live in low-traffic neighbourhoods where children can walk and play safely. Other councils help people insulate their homes and fit solar panels, greatly reducing their energy bills, while Hull builds neighbourhoods of shoddy homes that are liabilities to their owners.
