The group is made up of four candidates: Chief Scrutineer, and current Senator, Kristina Moore, along with political newcomers Alex Curtis, Lucy Stephenson and David Warr.

Robert Surcouf, Marisa Warren and Chair, Toni Roberts, are supporting them. 

The General Election is on 22 June this year, and will be contested by both independent candidates, and registered political parties including Reform, Alliance, Progress and the Jersey Liberal Conservatives. 

Member of 'A Better Way', Alex Curtis, says: “We believe that it is important to maintain the island’s traditionally independent, consensus based politics. However, in a world facing great instability those who are elected in June must be ready to work together in a positive way & respond to what may become a rapidly changing scenario.”

The group list their principles as being:

"Whether in government or scrutiny we will work together to ensure that:

1. the Assembly is responsive to the needs of the people of Jersey;

2. decisions are sustainable & evidence based, balancing social, economic & environmental wellbeing;

3. spending is affordable now and for future generations;

4. diversity is valued, recognising the potential of every member of our community;

5. Jersey plays a positive and relevant role internationally;

6. businesses and entrepreneurial skills are supported to generate financial growth and stability.

Senator Moore added: “We aim to have candidates in every district, some cannot announce they are standing just yet and we welcome anyone who thinks a Better Way is for them to get in touch.”
