Gareth Johnson's policies
Statement to voters
I am proud to have grown up locally and attended Dartford Grammar School.
Full statement
I also worked for many years in Dartford so l am the local choice for Dartfordians at this election. For me, it's not about divisive politics but common sense, practical policies so you will find me on the right side of what matters to local people.
This is why I fully support the Lower Thames Crossing to tackle Dartford's traffic problems and our local Grammar Schools which Labour have consistently fought to close. I will continue to try and overturn the ULEZ expansion which has had a serious impact on Dartford. I have also helped to ensure local residents can challenge the unfair practises from many Management Companies on our newer estates.
Nationally, I fully support the Rwanda scheme to end the unfairness of illegal immigration. I also support the lowering of taxes which can stifle the economy.
Additionally, it is clear to everyone that we live in a very unsettled world and face threats from Putin, China and North Korea. This is why I support increasing spending on defence to 2.5% of GDP. Our security has to be our top priority.
