Meet the candidates: Nick Le Cornu

Friday 26 August 2016

For eight months in 2014 Nick Le Cornu was a St Helier deputy.

He was elected in a by-election in March 2014 after Deputies Trevor and Shona Pitman had to resign their seats, but failed to keep his seat in the general election later in the year.

He's now hoping to stage a comeback. 

He says he's "standing as an anti-Austerity candidate in the interests of working people, pensioners and the poor."

But what about the man behind the manifesto? That's what our meet the candidates series is all about - finding out more about the person behind the prospective politician...
