“Different parts of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough have a wide range of opportunities, and we need someone with the skills to be able to pull them all together.
“This election is an opportunity to have a Mayor who matters and gets result for local people across the area. I have the campaigning record to win and I know what I want to achieve.
“And during the campaign I will show people I am the best person to become Cambridgeshire and Peterborough mayor,” he added.
