Portsmouth North Constituency
Biography:
I grew up outside of the UK until I was 17, as my father was in the foreign office, working for British embassies throughout the world.
I joined the military, working in various places from Norway to Belize. After this I joined Hampshire Police, where my first station was Portsmouth Central. This was a baptism of fire for me, but really brought it home to me, how to protect the public, reduce crime, and prevent anti-social behaviour!
I moved to Drayton in 2002, and have been here ever since, although I enjoyed working abroad throughout Africa and the Middle East over that period.
Two of my children went to Portsmouth Grammar School, and my youngest daughter is attending Portsmouth High School for girls.
I changed my career path after leaving the police, and am now a specialist in renewable technologies, in particular, solar panels for both domestic and commercial customers.
I have seen a change in the way our country is being run, from the appalling net zero policies, to immigration. I have seen with my own eyes two-tier policing, and how police officers have refused, for whatever reason, to deal robustly with offenders. This is why anti-social behaviour is at the forefront of my intentions to stamp it out. The public need to feel safe, going about their daily business. Law and order has broken down, with offenders committing both minor and major crimes with complete impunity. This has to stop.
Taking officers off the beat is the most ridiculous thing to do. Overnight we lost sources of intelligence, and even more importantly, the safety and security of the public. Absolutely shameful. I will do everything I can to reverse this, both locally and nationally.
