Canterbury Constituency
Biography:
Hello, I am Bridget Porter, a candidate representing Reform UK in the Canterbury Constituency for the upcoming 2024/25 general election.
I am a retired registered nurse and midwife, as well as a successful businesswoman in egg production and retailing. During my career as a midwife and nurse I served in NHS Hospitals as well as communities in Canterbury, Barnstable, and Lewisham.
My hobbies are gardening, walking, horse racing and supporting public houses in order to preserve the brewing industry, our culture and preventing pub closures.
During my career I have faced and overcome numerous challenges which has led me to become passionate about representing the Canterbury community, as I have witnessed in the last 30 years that we have been deceived by successive governments.
I am opposed to rewilding the countryside, building on prime agricultural land as I feel farming, horticulture and self sufficiency should be encouraged and supported.
I am a strong advocate for practical and technical qualifications, believing in the power of hands-on learning under the guidance of skilled artisans and mentors, generating strong character building in young adults' lives. It is my firm belief that the young adults in our community must be equipped with the skills to drive and engage in meaningful work, rather than merely observing the accomplishment of others.
My experiences have shaped my perspective and paved my passion for creating a better future for all.
