“Dear all, the world is currently in a very precarious situation. We should of course consider ourselves fortunate to be able to live in these relatively secure Islands. Nevertheless, it is crucial that local Government eectively explores every opportunity to boost our economy in a more diverse manner for us, our children and grandchildren's health and welfare. Disunity and bickering in this current parliament have been unnecessary and unproductive distractions. I stand again in this election as a proven people's person who is approachable, ready and willing to strive for common sense politics and unity amongst elected Deputies with the aim of joining the next assembly to move forward with a sense of urgency.”
Manifesto
Let me please get straight to the point. Why,? If I stood for Deputy in the 2020 Elections do I want to go through it all over again?
I am not the sort of person who can sit back and watch when I see successive Governments continue to ignore what I will, in this instance, call “us less privileged” citizens who reside in our beautiful Islands. Where States of Guernsey technology is concerned, it could be said that we have recently witnessed the results of poor judgement.
We have also seen the reluctance of many to fully accord with proposals to introduce conditions for rental property.
So, voters, before I get on to my focus items, please let me ask you all to look at the voting patterns of our existing Deputies and their 2020 Manifesto “pledges”.
Everyone (I believe) puts Health, Education & Housing at the forefront for themselves, their children and grandchildren. In relation to Health, Education & Housing we of course need finance.
