Biography:

As an MP, I would use my experience in UK Government policy consultations and helping Reform UK and other Reform UK campaigners with legal issues to push for needed legal reforms. I am now a non-practicing lawyer registered on the Roll of Solicitors with the UK Solicitors Regulatory Authority.

I aim to use my legal expertise to assist local constituents and support Reform UK's legislative plans, including improving the Child Maintenance Service which is failing children and parents and is in need of urgent overhaul.

I was born and educated in North London & graduated from Durham University in Economics. Whilst there I was elected as head of students at the Church of England St Chad’s College, where I studied the importance of compassion, spirituality and charity in Christianity and enjoyed representing a wide range of people.

I started an entrepreneurial law firm in London where I learnt about the challenges of job creation and running a small business. I enjoyed my times in Bristol as a consultant solicitor for a leading Bristol-based law firm for nearly 10 years. My legal expertise and hands on experience of the ups and downs of business will help me to boost new business in Bristol South and help those in my constituency fight back against bureaucracy. I would like to see the constituents of Bristol South being able to influence immigration policy and immigrant hotels in their area.

I have a keen interest in healthcare. I have purchased and managed residential care homes, including mental health care & invested in medical technology companies. My experience in this sector will help me to improve local healthcare services in Bristol South. I would also advocate for including alternative and complementary healing methods alongside NHS services.

Boost Growth. Tax cut incentives for new & small business. Lift Income tax free earnings threshold to £20k – cut energy & fuel duty – Cut stamp duty below 750k - lift minimum profit threshold to £100kon corporation tax - lift vat threshold to 120k

Boost Healthcare provision.Abolish Income Tax for doctors nurses for three years - increase local GP availability & develop a faster localised diagnostic capability - invest in innovative medical technology - cut incompetence & waste - tax relief on private healthcare plans - incentivise & encourage independent & charitable healthcare providers & organisations

Boost Social Housing & education. Reform social housing law - tax relief on independent educators - scrap interest on student loans.

Stop the war on the motorist & Local policing. Accelerate infrastructure improvements - 40,000 new front line police officers nationally.

Reform UK Economic strategy. (Overall savings £91 Billion per year) I have often seen that the Bank of England does not reduce interest rates fast enough, thereby unnecessarily increasing mortgage costs and the cost of servicing government National Debt – additional savings from Reform quantitive tightening policy & stop interest payments to commercial banks on QE reserves an annual saving £30-40 Billion - Cut service provision waste & scrap unnecessary quangos & commissions an annual saving £50 billion - Cut red tape & nanny state regulation & cut some unnecessary foreign aid, an annual saving of £6 billion
