Merseyside Police
Geoff Gubb, a businessman, is the Conservative candidate. Electing a Police & Crime Commissioner will mean that, for the first time, you will be able to hold one person to account for the policing of Merseyside. This will bring about not only greater transparency to policing, but a means to challenge, as well as support the police, in their job – to cut crime and make Merseyside a safer place in which to live and work.
Paula Keaveney, former Lib Dem councillor, is the Liberal Democrat candidate. I am not doing this for the money. I will donate the difference between what I earn now and what this job pays to charities supporting victims .
Jane Kennedy, former Labour MP for Liverpool Wavertree, is the Labour candidate, having defeated Peter Kilfoyle, former MP for Liverpool Walton in the nomination process. This is an important election to decide who will hold the Police to account and decide their priorities. The Police are facing massive cuts to their budget from the Tory/Lib Dem Government. By next April there will be 600 fewer police officers working on Merseyside as a result.
Hilary Jones, a magistrate, is the UKIP candidate. I feel that people should vote for me because I have vast experience in life generally, running a business and also in serving the community.
Kiron Reid is an independent candidate. A lecturer in law at Liverpool University, former Liverpool City Councillor for Anfield and Merseyside Police Authority member, Reid was a Liberal Democrat activist previously.
I have the experience and expertise to supervise the police in Merseyside as they cut crime, help victims and prevent reoffending.
