Welcome to my Web Site. 

I was first elected as a County Councillor on 1 May 1989 and have served continuously since then.  I am very proud to represent Adderbury, Bloxham, Bodicote, Milcombe and Milton and to ensure that their needs are heard in County Hall. I am also very proud to represent the Conservative Party and I support its  leader, David Cameron and its values. 

I believe in low taxes, real choice, value for money.  I have led the County Council since 2001 and, during that time, I have put Oxfordshire on the map locally, regionally and nationally. My political philosophy is based on belief in the market, less government, encouraging individual responsibility and ensuring that public services are run for the benefit of their users and not their providers.  I am proud to be politically incorrect. Being Leader of the Council is more than a full-time job but, when I can find time to relax, I enjoy good food and wine, playing the piano (badly) and reading avidly – particularly histories and biographies. 

I am active in Freemasonry and a keen supporter of country sports.  I was proud to be marching for Liberty and Livelihood on 22 September 2002.

In HM the Queen’s 2007 Birthday Honours, I was appointed a Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire in recognition of services to local government.

This site contains information about my involvement locally, in the county, regionally and nationally.
