Constituency:
Wales

--------------------------------------------------------

Which political issues are you most passionate about?

I am most political about the issues concerning bullying, as I have suffered, and so do many others in my area. I find it is unfair that young people get bullied, for isn't one of the human rights, that we have a right to feel safe?

What do you feel is the biggest issue for young people in your constituency?

I find that in my constituency there is a problem of separation, between cliques, i.e. goths, chavs etc. Bullying is once again found, as if someone from one clique is caught even talking to someone from another, they will be bullied.

What do you hope to achieve during your term of office?

I hope to add a bit of myself to the work I intend to do, and to let people know that they do have someone they can talk to.

What is your future career ambition?

I hope to work in the Welsh Assembly, so I can have an affect on young people, and do something for them.

Which public figure do you most admire and why?

I admire Stephen Hawking for he has always been my inspirational figure. I know he has nothing to do with children and the government, but he has always sparked an interest with me, how he has worked around his illness to do what he most wanted to do. I wish to do that, as most adults don't listen to what I have to say, so I shall work around it, to find a way to make them listen.

If there was one message you could send to the government, what would it be?

Listen to what we have to say! We are the next generation; give us a chance to prove our worth.
