1.Tell us about yourself and why you’re standing
Have lived in Chester for nearly 5 years. I ran the Granary health shop for 42 years. In April 2020 I realised immediately that the Covid narrative was completely wrong and joined likeminded people. Freedom Alliance is an offshoot of those groups

7. What doesn’t work well in Chester and how could you improve it?
the city planning system. Not sure an mp has that power
8. What steps should Chester take towards relieving the climate crisis ? How would you encourage green investment ?

if it would solve the problem, yes. I doubt it would thoug

No idea

17.How would you tackle the further regeneration of the rows?
18. What support could you offer to Chester FC?
questions 13-18 candidate offered no response.
19. What is your definition of a woman?
bad question. The amount of ‘boys’ wanting to detransition shows that this is a social construct, and body dysmorphia has much to do with it. It is also my opinion that pesticides and hormones in the water supply are strongly connected
20. What are your views on a form of proportional representation for Parliament and House of Lords reform?
PR is the only way this country can move beyond the corruption inherent in the current system

it’s the same in most Western countries. Not really addressable locally.
