jayneozanne.bsky.social @jayneozanne.bsky.social · 19/05/2025I believe politics should be values driven. Thats why I've grouped the areas I'm keen to focus on under my three priorities, which form the basis of a #FairGuernsey. Central to all is a #FairTax structure, which I shall explain separately. 010 1

jayneozanne.bsky.social @jayneozanne.bsky.social · 27/04/2025I love the fact that the late #PopeFrancis asked to be buried in Santa Maria Maggiore - just across the road from the #Argentinian Embassy, the nearest place he had to home!

jayneozanne.bsky.social @jayneozanne.bsky.social · 25/04/2025I am fortunate to have some special memories of #PopeFrancis, not least the very special act of him signing a T-shirt (which he rarely did) which I’d worn to St John Henry Newman’s beatification (who had built our church), and which I then asked #JustinWelby to sign… He was the kindest of pastors 010 1
jayneozanne.bsky.social @jayneozanne.bsky.social · 21/04/2025#PopeFrancis was an extraordinary man, who was determined to keep at the heart of his ministry his calling first & foremost to be a Pastor.
