I have served my country in the Army and as a local politician, and have almost 40 years of public service.
I retired as a full Colonel, having played my part defending democracy in the First Gulf War and protecting the vulnerable on the streets of Northern Ireland.
In business, I provided state of the art training facilities for international police forces.
In Gloucestershire, I have been a Borough Councillor and Chairman of my local Parish Council, listening to residents about their concerns and fear of rising crime.
Local crime is much worse than official figures suggest, as many fail to report sexual and domestic abuse, retail theft and things like rural crime.
Too often, victims believe the police will do little to help them.
I have the strategic, management, financial and business skills to ensure I make an immediate impact as your Commissioner. After consulting widely with the residents of Gloucestershire, my top 6 priorities are:
I will ensure the Chief Constable has the necessary resources to deliver these priorities and will hold him to account until they are achieved.
Crime prevention will be my single focus and my top priority.
