My politics: Councillor Rupert Simmons
Party: Conservative
Division: Heathfield
I like to make a positive contribution to my community, whether that is my division or the county as a whole.
I want to ensure that the South East Plan, which is currently in the draft stages, materialises as a sound and sustainable strategic plan for East Sussex.
Every student in East Sussex deserves improved provision for education and everyone in the county needs better employment opportunities.
