Candidate for Surrey-Newton

In their own words

This candidate hasn’t listed a campaign website or social account with the Town. That says nothing about them as a candidate — it just means less of their material is published online for us to summarise.

Where they stand

“Surrey has everything that we need to make sure that we are diversifying our markets. No matter if an administration changes in the future, that is something that we need to make sure we are never caught off guard again, that we are able to stand on our own two feet.”
