I stand before you today in the wake of an economic and political storm. There is much to be done and the challenges are great. But the time has come for renewal, a time to regain our hopes, a time to hold our heads high, a time to have faith in tomorrow.
My background was devoid of hope and aspiration but I was fortunate to be given opportunities allowing me to build up a successful business and create jobs and opportunities for others. I’m not a career politician, but my life’s experience of injustice has given me a fire in the belly to help others.
Where I live in Chippenham, every day I see the burdens placed on us all. I pledge I will be a strong voice for you in Parliament, fighting to improve our local services and keeping our open spaces. I will work hard to protect the NHS, champion our Town Centres and make it easy for local business to ply their trade.
The greatest honour I could be given is to be trusted with the things we all hold dear to our hearts, the chance to make a better tomorrow, and for that, we need change.
