Outlook
I am a great believer in local decision making and having now had experience as a councillor, at a very local level, I am even more determined to ensure that the process becomes meaningful to constituents rather than a system for system’s sake. If electors were enthused by policy decisions that were taken efficiently, transparently and effectively, the relationship between them and local government would be hugely improved. I would like to show people that they, and I, can make a difference to how they live everyday, by positively participating, building communities.
