Statement to voters

I have been a Swale Borough councillor in Teynham and Lynsted since 2015.

Full statement

In that time I have dealt with many requests for help from residents, including getting a new yellow box junction on the A2 to improve safety and working with Network Rail to help prevent flooding on the Lower Road.

I have supported residents in their opposition to the development of land behind Station Road, Teynham, installed new litter bins in Norton and have used my member grant money to help local projects for Oare Village Hall, Teynham Scouts and other local organisations.

I am also a Kent County Councillor and Cabinet Member for Transport at Kent County Council.

On a personal note, I have been married to my wife, Sue, for 34 years. We have two children and two young grandchildren.

Representing Teynham, Lynsted and the surrounding villages is a privilege. It is something I really enjoy and hope to continue.

This statement was last updated on May 9, 2023.

This statement was added by Mike Whiting, their team, or by a Democracy Club volunteer, based on information published by the candidate elsewhere.
