Full statement
He has been a Town Councillor and stood in several elections before in Suffolk, including as Police and Crime Commissioner, and in previous general elections for neighbouring Suffolk Coastal and Central Suffolk and North Ipswich constituencies. James writes:
"I am delighted to be standing to be MP for Ipswich, one of England's oldest towns. Having lived in Suffolk for over 10 years, I’ve always viewed Ipswich as the hub and heart of Suffolk, with all the great attributes of a small city. I say this because Ipswich is a city in all but name, and it’s astonishing that the Tory and Labour politicians who have led and represented Ipswich over recent years have failed to secure city status – just one of the issues I’d like to take up."
