Why I'm standing
I'm proud to be an Aucklander for the last 50 years. It is a great city and can lead the world in what it takes to commute, be clean, have low crime, be affordable, decarbonise and to innovate. I stand for equity, meaning fairness and having no avoidable differences arising from poor governance, corruption or cultural exclusion. I will do more with less, and continue climate action and progress with greater value and less cost.
About me
I have the mix of skills to be an excellent Mayor of a world-class city. I am a talented listener for good ideas, and a fast learner who understands people, law, governance, finance, construction, health, sport and business. I have experience in creating and implementing strategy and empowering teams to get results. I have created four small businesses and worked with larger ones. I am an independent candidate taking the best ideas from each party.
My priorities
- Act decisively on the climate emergency to decarbonise and ensure sufficiency of water and power.
- Manage income and expenditure wisely and reassess contracts for price, outcomes and accountability.
- Decongest traffic for productivity and low stress – cheap public transport, biking, flexible work.
