Constituency

Carolyn Grant
Net Zero policies and too much red tape has damaged our farming industry. Reform wants farmers with farms under 500 Ha to be able to manage their own land the way they know best. We also want to encourage more young people into farming.
Biography
There is a severe lack of affordable housing for Borderers. Local housing associations are under increasing pressure from people looking for homes. I would like to help young people remain in the rural areas in which they grew up by encouraging them to take up a trade to help build and restore homes as well as build their own future and that of the Borders. Reform UK Scotland’s small business policies will encourage new entrepreneurs to help regenerate Border Businesses and generate more jobs.
The NHS is the biggest employer in the Borders but there is a severe shortage of medical staff. Reform will bring people back into NHS frontline medicine by putting them on zero basic rate tax for three years, and writing off their student loans after 10 years of NHS service or pro rata depending on length of service.
