“In James's own words
“I have lived in Sutton for over 25 years, raising my family here and putting down deep roots in the community I am proud to call home. Throughout that time I have seen first hand what makes Sutton a friendly, welcoming borough, and I am committed to protecting and strengthening those values.”
“Guided by a strong work ethic and Labour Party values of integrity, fairness and accountability, I am standing to serve my local community and to ensure the council delivers on its responsibilities.”
“I will work constructively, but firmly, to hold the council to account and to help Sutton continue to thrive for current residents and future generations.”
