Why I'm standing

I will use my 40 years transport (truck and bus) business experience to reduce public transport rate (rent) payer subsidised costs, improve driver conditions and provide an actual economical and efficient public service.

About me

I represent Everyone not just a small minority. I may not agree with you but I will listen to what you have to say.

My priorities

  1. My priority is to fix our Public Transport system. Make bus trips simpler, cheaper and easier.
  2. Be a voice of equality and equal rights for all people, not based purely on one's race.
  3. Dismantle ECAN Bureaucracy, red-tape and choices made based on ideology.
