A proud resident of Hertsmere, refuses to be just another cog in the political machine. Disillusioned by the empty promises and lack of accountability from mainstream politicians, he has taken on the role of Reform UK Branch Chair for Hertsmere with a fierce determination to challenge the status quo.
Darren's journey into politics was catalyzed by the aftermath of the 2016 Brexit referendum, where he witnessed the disregard for the democratic process first hand. This spurred him to join the Brexit Party and eventually become the Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for Epping Forest. Since then, his passion for reform and accountability has only grown stronger.
His platform is bold and unapologetic. Darren advocates for a smaller state where individuals have more control over their lives. He is opposed to the Net Zero agenda, viewing it as economically damaging and environmentally ineffective. Darren is committed to reducing taxes, fostering economic growth, and implementing sensible immigration policies. Furthermore, he aims to overhaul public services, including the NHS, to ensure they are efficient and accessible to all.
He proposes the creation of a new Department for Efficiency and Accountability (DEA) and is eager to play a key role in its establishment. The DEA would tackle waste, inefficiency, and bureaucracy in the public sector, ensuring taxpayer money is spent effectively to fix our failing public services and provide the quality services the British people deserve.
For Darren, politics is not about personal gain; it's about making a tangible difference in the lives of ordinary people. In the General Election on the 4th July he stood in Hertsmere as the Reform UK Parliamentary Candidate against Sir Oliver Dowden MP increasing his vote share by seven times from the Council Election just a year previous.
In a political landscape marred by apathy and disillusionment, Darren Selkus stands out as a beacon of hope for those yearning for real change. With his unwavering dedication, military discipline, and business acumen, he is poised to challenge the entrenched interests and truly represent the voices of Hertsmere. As he aptly puts it, "If you want change, you have to change your vote." And Darren Selkus is here to lead that change.
