I’m standing as an Independent for Oxfordshire County Council because I believe local politics should serve the people, not party machines. That means fixing the basics with urgency and care, planning communities that work before the concrete is poured, and investing in the quiet services—like buses, libraries, and youth centres—that hold our towns together.
This manifesto is built on a simple truth: decline is a choice. But so is action.
I will fight for a fully funded, long-term plan to repair and maintain roads and pavements. I’ll challenge developments that strain our services without giving back. I’ll demand transparency on public spending and hold contractors accountable. I’ll protect our essential local services, not as luxuries, but as necessities. I’ll stand for a fairer transport system that works for rural families, not against them.
But more than that—I’ll make sure you’re heard. With an open digital platform for constant engagement, regular community meet-ups, and a promise of honesty over hollow consultation, I’ll keep democracy close to home.
I bring two decades of experience in education, business, and community leadership. I know what it means to make something from nothing—and I know how to listen, act, and deliver.
This manifesto isn’t built on ideology. It’s built on reality.
It’s time to fix the foundations, challenge the status quo, and build a future where community leads the way.
No party lines. No empty promises. Just action. Together, let’s begin.
