My name is Chris Jackson, and I have been a resident of Hull for two years.

Full statement

I love the vibe of this city and its rich history and diversity. I have built a 14-year career as an IT engineer and currently work for a local Hull firm.
I am a military veteran with nine years of service in the UK reserves. In my free time, I enjoy going on walks with my family, as well as following local and international politics and history.
I joined the Green Party because I believe that people need support just as much as our environment does. Many of society’s issues stem from decades of mismanagement by governments and a wealthy few not paying their fair share, while the media often blame the most vulnerable.

Hull’s potential has been squandered by mainstream parties that take people’s votes for granted. Together with my fellow Green Party councillors, I want to bring hope, action, and long-term
change to the ward and the wider city. With your vote, we can achieve this by providing better and greener transport links, building higher-quality social housing, retrofitting existing empty homes, creating purpose-designed green spaces, and supporting efforts to bring the cost of living down for all citizens of Hull. Vote for change, and together we can build a better Hull for the future.
