Statement to voters

I believe families are the foundation of our society.

Full statement

They are the fundamental unit of welfare and wellbeing. The more families flourish the less the state needs to do to pick up the pieces. Strong families lead to a strong nation.

I think that mums and dads that decided to look after their own children should not be discriminated against by the tax system. Couples should have a shared tax allowance. Any money that is made available by the state for childcare should also be made available to a parent that takes time off work to care for their own child.

A women is an adult human female. Men should be kept out of women's spaces and women's sport. I would seek to repeal the 2004 gender recognition act.

I am for free speech. I would oppose a "Conversion Therapy" ban. These bans criminalises parents that do not accept that a child can change gender. I oppose abortion clinic buffers zones that turn silent prayer into a thought crime.

I oppose assisted dying and believe all life needs to be protected and cherished.
