| Info | I was a lecturer in Sports Coaching & Health and Fitness in Edinburgh, and also a successful professional natural bodybuilder and businesswoman.
I have to put my hand on my heart and say I had paid little attention to politics over the years, enjoying a busy and contented life. For me, politics was something that seemed to have little impact in my life.
The arrival of a worldwide pandemic and subsequently the restrictions thrust upon us, politics suddenly became something very relevant and brought it to the forefront of all our lives.
The frustration that came with opening my eyes to politics made me angry, frustrated and I was fast becoming one of those people who moan about our current government decisions on a daily basis.
The lockdown and the illogical decisions regarding how it was being handled drove me to despair. I started writing to my local MP about the situation and to request the science being used to instruct policy, but to no avail. The only response I received was a standard letter.
As a business owner, I feel myself and others deserved more than a standard corporate response. I felt that the Scottish Government was destroying the country mentally, physically and economically. A better balance could be struck. I felt helpless watching businesses close and my members, friends and family suffering.
I knew there was a need for change. I looked at various political parties and the refreshing strength of The Reform party stood out. I immersed myself in everything I could about Reform, their policies and what they stand for. They possess what seems to be lacking in politics today – common sense. The Reform Party supports small business, community, education and rebuilding the economy with fair and simple tax reforms.
I had never considered standing as a political candidate, but I felt that something needed to change and if I had the ability to help make a change I would try.
I feel that politics isn’t reflecting the real world and that it needs an injection of reality and common sense.
I chose to stand for Reform UK because of its strong stance against the restriction of civil liberties and our positive plans for Education and the Economy.
