I am a local resident who lives nearby in Sutton for over 12 years and who regular works in the Wimbledon, Raynes and Park and Morden areas, in fact my partners family have lived and worked in the area for decades.

Full statement

I am a businessman with over a twenty of experience having founded and run an award winning inventory report business that serves tenants, landlords and lettings agents in London and the surrounding areas. I built an inventory report App that is available in over 58 languages and is used extensively by my own business and many others in the UK, which is award winning and a market leader and I have helped many dozens of people set up and run their own successful businesses.

I am not a career politician like my opponents but I am passionate about politics. I am in my early 50’s divorced with one Son and have been engaged to my partner of 12 years. I was born in Rochdale, Lancashire to a typical working class family, joined the Army at 19, served for 12 years and I am a Gulf War veteran. I am lucky to have seen many of life’s facets from a frugal upbringing, to serving my country to the benefits of running a successful business. Out of work I am a keen scuba diver and family man. I would be delighted to meet you personally to introduce ourselves properly.
