Kathryn Ann Holloway
I am Kathryn Holloway and I am certainly not a typical politician. I spent 20 years as a news reporter and presenter for services like ITN, TV-am and Sky, getting to the truth of the matter and holding the authorities to account on behalf of the public which I believe are essential skills as a Police and Crime Commissioner. I also covered every possible stage of the Criminal Justice system from close up, working alongside detectives and covering cases from Magistrates’ Courts to the Old Bailey. Since 2000 I have built an international reputation as a specialist in the release of public information in an emergency. I worked for 8 years for the Cabinet Office’s National Emergency Planning College and have advised Chief Constables, Fire Chiefs, military leaders and the boards of some of Britain’s largest companies in a crisis, as well as speaking at the World Conference in Disaster Management. This background means I will explain police action to the public and could never preside over a cover-up.
I will introduce practical, common-sense solutions to work with our budget of £100 million and to use our officers to best effect. I will work with partners like the NHS, Fire Service and councils to share facilities where possible and support one another so the police do take on the responsibilities of others. I do not need an expensive Deputy or PR Agency.
I will make sure that you get a fair share of policing whether you live in the town or country and whichever community you belong to as a Commissioner for all.
