Robert lives in Glossop and grew up nearby in Manchester.

Full statement

His first job was working as a fishmonger to help pay for his studies at Manchester University. He later went to night school while working full time and went on to become a Chartered Accountant with a successful career in business.

Robert has a clear plan to help make the High Peak an even better place to live:

-Support our high streets and small businesses -Improve access to local healthcare -Properly funding public services - increasing school budgets & recruiting more police -Investing in our local roads and railways -Protecting our beautiful countryside -Delivering Brexit and re-uniting the country

High Peak residents have a clear choice between Robert, an independent-minded moderate or our hard-line Corbyn backing Labour MP
