Andrew White

I left school at 15 with very few formal qualifications and began work as a car mechanic before moving into retail. Over time, I progressed to a senior management role, becoming responsible for 250 stores across the UK.

In 2010, I joined the Royal Logistic Corps, 148 Squadron Expeditionary Forces Institute, and completed three tours of Afghanistan. I was privileged to lead a large team and travel across the country supporting combat troops, which remains one of my proudest achievements.

Alongside my career, I have been able to invest in property and become a landlord, providing tenants and their families with affordable, good-quality housing. I am now semi-retired, working part-time providing live-in support to a young disabled adult and occasionally working security at large events.

Although I grew up in Glasgow, I have lived in West Dunbartonshire for many years and am proud to stand as the Reform UK candidate for Clydebank and Milngavie. I am not a career politician, but I believe the needs of our communities have been ignored for too long. I support a bold plan to restore business confidence, ease the cost of living, and improve education and NHS services.
