Gareth believes in:
- Making a Difference: I want to shape policies that reflect our values and protect our way of life.
- Community Engagement: I understand local issues and am committed to addressing them head-on.
- Driving Change: I believe in a government that listens, acts transparently, and puts citizens first.
- Stopping illegal immigration: We must secure our borders and ensure immigration is legal and controlled.
- Scrapping net zero: Current policies threaten our economy and green belt. We need a balanced, practical approach.
- Holding government accountable: Transparency and integrity must be restored in our political system.
