Elected as Deputy of St. Brelade No. 2
It is a privilege to stand again to represent the people of St Brelade.
Our parish is a beautiful part of the island, well served with good infrastructure and excellent amenities. Most importantly, we have a close-knit and caring community—something we all value and must preserve.
However, life has becoming harder for many residents. Jersey is increasingly expensive, and for many, salaries and pensions have not kept pace with that cost.
Over the past 5 years, my Reform Jersey colleagues and I have taken decisive action to put more money back into the pockets of working families and pensioners. We have led the way by reducing GP costs, rolling out more free childcare, hot school meals, and targeted help with back-to-school costs. We have extended Pension Plus to more retirees, and we plan to do more.
To deliver good public services, we need to maintain a strong, sustainable and diversified economy – one that meets the needs of islanders now and in the future. For me, this will mean supporting and developing all our industries, looking for new opportunities and creating a more efficient and effective public sector.
However, some areas still need urgent attention. Jersey’s Ferry Service is one of them. Evidence received by my scrutiny panel found that the new ferry contract has significantly increased the cost of living, the wider economy and had a significant negative on people’s lives.
“I have the experience, energy and commitment to be an effective States Member—one who builds consensus across the political spectrum and who delivers results. Working as a team, alongside fellow candidate John Young, and my other Reform Jersey colleagues, we will provide the listening and responsive leadership that Jersey deserves.”
