James Sales
Real Issues For Real People
Why I'm standing
My vision is to have a community where people can freely flourish, but in order to do this, there are real issues for real people that must be addressed at the grassroots level. I support reductions in cumbersome, controlling and ineffective rules and by-laws. I support healthy and open debate, freedom of expression and association, and the ability to discuss openly with the board effects of local and national issues on communities and individuals.
About me
I was born and raised in the Wellington region. I have a commerce degree in international business, with specialties in commercial law and Asian cultures and languages. I have developed an interest in politics and culture in recent years, and I believe that there is the growing need for new voices and fresh understandings of local and nation-wide issues in the local political environment to set us on the correct path for the next decade.
My priorities
- Advocate for the firefighters, the fire service, and other emergency services.
- Support good business and governance.
- Help the youth to combat youth social issues by support people-friendly climate change initiatives.
