I wrote in my 2016 election leaflet: “My goal is that in the next 10 years Guernsey aims to become the healthiest and happiest community in the world with a sustainable environment and a secure, successful and stable economy.” As the COVID-19 pandemic has raged around the world, I know that I am not alone in believing that our island has been one of the best places in the world to live through such times which is a good basis on which to achieve that 2016 ambition.

We have many challenges in the next four years and there will be a range of views on how to tackle them; but they will also be a period of tremendous opportunity. Like the majority of you, I care passionately about our island home and I want it to be a place that my children want and are able to return to live and thrive. That is what drives me and why I remain committed to working hard in the best interests of the community as a whole. I recognise that the most difficult decisions are often also the most contentious but I have never flinched from making those decisions, however unpopular that may be at times.

I appreciate you taking the time to visit this website. I hope that it will enable you to make an informed choice.

With your support for candidates standing for The Guernsey Partnership of Independents, we will be able to move more quickly than we have in the past and we will be able to take the opportunity to make the step changes from which our community will benefit.

Thank you for your support and your vote.
