Statement to voters

In the upcoming general election, our choice transcends mere political affiliations; it’s about shaping the trajectory of our nation towards a more sustainable and equitable future.

Full statement

Electing Green Party MPs signifies a commitment to sustainability, environmental stewardship, and social justice. As someone deeply invested in these values, I see an opportunity to make a significant contribution to our political landscape. While recent polls may predict a Labour Party victory, concerns linger about its ideological direction and ability to address pressing issues like climate change and social inequality. The effectiveness of the opposition is also questioned amidst a perceived rightward shift within the Conservative party. If elected, I bring a progressive voice, an alternative perspective, and a dedicated commitment to address urgent social and ecological challenges. My experience as a local councillor in the London Borough of Enfield, where I challenged council policies on housing and environmental issues, demonstrates my proactive approach to addressing community needs. With a background in high-tech manufacturing and as a director of a not-for-profit enterprise supporting small and medium-sized businesses, I offer a unique blend of business acumen and social responsibility. My academic credentials in engineering and business further equip me to navigate complex policy issues and advocate for evidence-based solutions. Having lived in the Southgate ward of Enfield for three decades, I am deeply connected to the community and understand the local concerns firsthand. I am eager to represent the Southgate and Wood Green constituency, bringing forth ideas and initiatives that prioritize the well-being of both people and the planet. In this pivotal moment, as we stand at the crossroads of our nation’s future, I urge constituents of Southgate and Wood Green to consider the values and vision that I embody. Together, we can forge a path towards a more resilient, compassionate, and sustainable society. Your vote for me as the Member of Parliament for the Southgate and Wood Green constituency is a vote for positive change, and I am honoured to have the opportunity to be part of that change.
