article needs cleanup

Almost this entire article needs cleanup. You can tell it's been written by him or a member of his team from the use of first name, political double speak and the fact it's 99% complimentary information PLUS there are almost no sources in the whole article. Note particularly the "constituency priorities" section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SquidSquad77 (talk • contribs) 19:29, 3 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Have to agree with this; the article does not meet the NPOV ideal at all. Pcb21 Pete 15:29, 7 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Looking a lot better now that "constituency priorities" has been removed but I still think the political career area needs some work --SquidSquad77 (talk) 01:08, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The article has had a cleanup and I have removed a lot of unsourced content tonight. The article, in my view, is no longer unbalanced. I have therefore removed the "unbalanced" template at the top of the article. But if any editors have further concerns about WP:NPOV or balance, the template can be restored.

Sparse on biographical information

Nothing on parents, upbringing, siblings, spouse(s), partner(s), although two children stated.

Nothing on qualifications required for stated ten years work as a doctor in the NHS.

The article reads as a sparsely sourced CV rather than an encyclopaedic biographical article. 86.160.95.7 (talk) 06:55, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
