Who is the living person you most admire?

My mother, there’s not a word in the dictionary to accurately describe how wonderful she is.

What is your favourite TV programme?

Has to be Game of Thrones, I could have picked any number of programmes but this is the one of the moment – I can’t wait for series 5!

What song would you take with you to a desert island?

Difficult as I have an eclectic range of music taste, but having recently found an old Police CD I think I would go for “Message in a Bottle” – and hope someone would find my SOS!

Further strengthen and enforce the Equal Pay Act, improve Maternity Rights, Carers Allowances and support for improved Mental Health services.

What is the most important issue facing your constituents?

Increase inward investment, infrastructure & better amenities for Gedling. Improving our high streets and town centre facilities to create more jobs.
