James Graham Gibbs

Reform UK candidate for Woodstock and Bladon

Reform UK

Do you feel let down by the previous political parties like I do? I think Britain is an amazing country now and in the past. Reform UK appears to be the only party truly standing up for Britain. Nigel Farage its leader, says it as it is and does what he says. I sincerely hope for Britain's sake that he becomes our next leader. It is urgently required that common sense returns to our country fast. I ran my own company for 30 years in the property sector and understand profit and loss. Profit means taxes and taxes mean finance for schools, hospitals, roads etc. I also understand that too high taxes stifle enterprise and motivation to work. I sold my business in 2021 and now have the time and expertise to devote to the local area. I live in East End, Oxfordshire, am a friendly character who works hard. I urge you to give me your vote. Thank You.
