For those interested, here is the speech I delivered (in full) on 27th November 2025 on the Code of Conduct to suspend me from the States of Deliberation, a proposition which was defeated by 22 votes to 11, with 5 abstentions (and 2 absences.)

My thanks to all who have supported me before and after yesterday’s vote not to suspend me. It’s been a long, stressful journey for all concerned - but I hope with momentum we’re in better place to improve regulation, governance and complaints processes in healthcare - and also the Code process too

I was not previously aware of this family’s case until their letter was published in today’s Guernsey Press, but sadly their experience will feel familiar to quite a number of others:

β€œBut I cannot, in good conscience, simply accept the recommended sanction…To do otherwise, would be an abdication of responsibility to the many families who have entrusted me with their personal stories in the last four years. They have done so often at great emotional cost…”

"Assisted dying gives terminally ill people that choice to die on their terms."

As Clinical Lead for the implementation of Voluntary Assisted Dying in New South Wales, Dr Wade Stedman sees first-hand the difference a compassionate law makes to dying people and their families.

Thanks to Aindre for offering and providing disability awareness training to Deputies this week. It was a salutary lesson in some of the challenges faced by a fair chunk of the community.

When the opportunity to purchase Leale’s Yard was presented to the former P&R of which I was a Member we had no hesitation in pursuing it. I think the deal announced today represents good VFM & importantly unlocks the site for development after many years of unsuccessful attempts to progress #govgg

Grateful to colleagues on P&R for choosing me to be committee’s Vice President. Look forward to serving them and supporting President

Thankful also to Sarah Hansmann Rouxel for nominating me to serve as member of SACC. Was keen to continue to deliver a comprehensive programme of work this term

β€œQuestionnaires, briefing meetings, manifestos and pledges are another tool in the box which may help some voters sift one independent policy-free candidate from another, but they really serve as a moment-in-time opportunity to raise the profile of a political issue…”

Horace Camp’s article is worth a read. It chimes with Step 3 of Forward Guernsey’s plan for public finances - until we have a really clear idea of cashflow needs, the Β£1bn number attached to the capital programme, we don’t know what taxes need to collected and by when.

This is EXACTLY the reason we have adopted policies aimed at retaining and attracting young people to return to the island, including the Additional Earned Allowance for all over-16s on first Β£100k of their taxable earnings until aged 30, saving up to Β£20k in tax towards housing or pension provision
