Original Manifesto

Mark William Le Chevalier

Candidate for Connétable in St. Helier

I am a Jerseyman and have lived in Jersey my whole life. I was born in St Helier, where I currently reside with my wife and two children. An electrician by trade, and the owner and director of two successful businesses.

I regularly encounter parishioner’s points of views regarding parish matters and this was my calling in which to stand for election. To be in a role where I can voice people’s concerns, to implement their choices and to be their States representative, whilst endorsing my own qualities, skillsets and values.

I’m passionate about St Helier and respect tradition, however a fresh contemporary approach is now required. I pride myself on being a proactive person and do not make empty promises. I will not be joining a political party as I believe the Constable should remain impartial.
