Let’s keep building a better island, together.”

Integrity - Honesty - Experience
Vote Vermeulen
I’m Simon Vermeulen, a People’s Deputy since 2020, and I’m asking for your support as I seek re-election.
Over the past four and a half years, I’ve fought hard for our community, and I’m not done yet. As a father, grandfather, and husband, I’m deeply invested in Guernsey’s future.
With challenges like housing pressures, connectivity and economic sustainability ahead, we need experienced, principled leadership. I believe in Guernsey and in shaping a resilient, prosperous future for all. Now is not the time for guesswork, it is a time for action, integrity, and vision. Let’s finish what we started, together.
Before entering politics, I built my career as a businessman and hotelier, running the former La Grande Mare Hotel on Guernsey’s beautiful West Coast.
Since being elected to the States in 2020, I’ve served as Vice President of Home Affairs and sat on the Economic Development Committee.
I am a proud father of four, a lifelong boating enthusiast, and a former powerboat racer.
Outside of politics, you’ll often find me by the sea or racing Scalextric cars with the grandchildren!
My values: integrity, experience, and vision are at the heart of everything I do. I believe that politics should be grounded in honesty, transparency, and always putting Guernsey’s best interests first. With a background in business and a term of experience in the States I understand how to tackle complex issues and deliver practical results.
But I also believe in looking ahead shaping a sustainable, successful future for our island.
