and live on Freeview channel 276
"During my military career, I rose through the ranks to eventually become a Regimental Sergeant Major in the Light Dragoons, Hartlepool’s local cavalry regiment.
“Since leaving the Army over a decade ago, I’ve become an entrepreneur in the oil and gas industry, and have built several construction, logistics and storage companies from the ground-up in the Middle East.

Hide Ad“I’m standing to be Hartlepool’s MP on behalf of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), who are here to offer a different type of politics to local people. We lean left on economics, and right on culture.
“On economics, we’re for the Government taking an active role through investing in public services, reversing deindustrialisation, and pushing up wages.
"On culture, we’ll take a firm line in deterring antisocial behaviour, cutting down migration, and encouraging stable families.
“We’ll create jobs by ensuring the new freeport is zoned to bring industries here, work to secure a replacement for the nuclear plant, and lobbying for tariffs on industrial goods to encourage the expansion of the local manufacturing industry.
