History
Originally founded in 2012 as a pressure group by Nick Le Cornu, Montfort Tadier, Jasen Cronin & Sam Mézec,[1] on 24 April 2014 it was announced that it would become a party to contest the 2014 general election scheduled for October.[2] The organisation was legally registered as a political party at the Royal Court on 4 July 2014.[3][4] Founder Le Cornu was later expelled from the party in September 2014.[5]
For the 2014 general election on 15 October 2014, Reform Jersey put up 8 candidates. However, only their serving States Members were re-elected. Those were Deputies Sam Mézec, Montfort Tadier and Geoff Southern.[6]
Policies
The party states its support for a 'living wage', progressive taxation, 26 weeks statutory maternity leave, construction of affordable housing and democratic reform of the States of Jersey.[7] Reform Jersey also supports the legalisation of same-sex marriage,[8] and organised a rally in support of equal marriage on 12 July 2014.[9][10]
