A wandering Aussie who married a local lass, I’ve lived in Wayfield since 2011.

Full statement

I have two adult stepchildren, two of my own youngsters, and a couple of cats. When they all allow me to, I provide my nearly-30 years of IT expertise to a multi-national insurance company based in London.

With its friendly, honest and decent residents, Wayfield and Weeds Wood has become a special place for me.

Let me be your strong voice in local government.

On 4 May, vote for me.

My priorities:

TRANSPORT > Improving the bus services for the Medway towns, making them more affordable, efficient, integrated, and comprehensive.

HOUSING > Ensuring a sensible new housing policy is adopted, balancing the need for new homes with the views and concerns of existing residents.

EDUCATION > Improving access to, and the quality of, Special Education Needs and Disabilities (SEND) services in schools across the towns.

ENVIRONMENT > Ensuring that Medway's green spaces are protected from overdevelopment.
