Statement to voters

Another Brick in the Wall! I am not a career politician.

Full statement

I am a registered mental health nurse working for the NHS and you may have heard this before, but… I have a dream. I dream of a world where individuals feel empowered to succeed and where that hard work pays off. Where we have freedom of speech without offense or persecution. Now I believe that dream is achievable, but this is where I need your help.

Many of you may; or may not be familiar with me as a town councillor in Hetton Town Council. Where I help to support the local community in dealing with the issues raised. Or as my role earlier as a nurse within the NHS. However, I am also your candidate in the upcoming general election with Reform UK.

My journey did not start there. I ran for youth parliament at an early age and sat on many youth committees as I grew up in the small village within the town of Houghton-le-Spring. I was raised with values and under the dogma of Labour policies in which I felt was the backbone of the community; or as I soon came to realise was the cancer.

As my career began to develop, I became a manager of a community interest company that supported families and individuals of all ages with difficulties around neurodiversity. Particularly autism, as I have a strong connection, having been diagnosed with the condition myself.

I reached out to city councillors in various areas where I received some support from certain Labour Councillors, until it became apparent how my strong, hard efforts were benefiting them. After seeing these councillors use my voluntary work to apply for their own funding and meet with me to tell me how to cheat the system, I walked away from what I can only describe as corruption.

Keeping my morals and my dignity, I joined Reform UK. With Reform, I have found my home. I have joined a community in which I feel supported. I share my story so that you may find your home too. It may not be with Reform, but there will always be support here for you too.

Pink Floyd released the album “The Wall” in 1982 about being tormented at school by tyrannical, abusive teachers. The wall to me, is a depiction of the Labour “Red Wall” and as with all political walls, needs to fall. We need to celebrate diversity in choice, not only in the protected characteristics but within the belief of politics. I am not another brick in the wall, and neither are you.

My hope is to remind the world that justice, fairness, and freedom are more than just words—they are perspectives. These words that can offer the means to meaning and for those that will listen, the enunciation of truth. Bring back democracy; I do this for my family, I do this for my friends.

Britain NEEDS Reform!
