Neil Watson
Reform UK candidate for New Addington North
I am running because we can bring much-needed change not only to our borough, but to the country as a whole. My career to date has involved policing, security, and education (as well as running businesses), so I can see how various elements need to flourish if our nation is to prosper. I intend to foster a secure, confident, and stable future for our children by tackling head-on the problems we face in a decisive but fair manner.
