I am 59 years old and live in Worcestershire where I was born and raised.

Full statement

I went to secondary school at Malvern College from 1978 to 1983. I studied for a degree in Law & Philosophy at Keele University and then an MSc in Real Estate & Management in Birmingham.

My family is fortunate enough to own land and property courtesy of my great-grandfather’s acquisitions in the early part of the last century. This I help manage and in the 1990’s I established a gardening business as well.

I became concerned about the direction of travel within the European Union and joined UKIP in 2008. I helped campaign in the 2008 European election and all others subsequently. I was surprised we won the referendum in 2016 but delighted until the vote was not accepted by so many MPs. The reaction in Westminster was shameful and it was only thanks to our robust constitutional system of government that finally they were defeated.

But Brexit is far from complete, and Reform UK would finish the job by scrapping EU legislation and the Windsor Framework that divides Great Britain from Northern Ireland.

Since Blair was elected in 1997 this United Kingdom has slowly been ruined by uncontrolled immigration and a refusal to accept the people’s will to leave the EU. These are the policies of Labour and Conservative parties and if you want it to stop you must vote Reform UK.
