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

Which political issues are you most passionate about?

I am most passionate about issues that affect young people and their rights, for instance education, our rights as young people and issues in schools (anything to do with young people).

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

I think the biggest issue for young people in our constituency is the lack of places to go after school. There is a distinct lack of places that we are able to meet our friends and just relax away from home and school work. I think this is an issue because without obvious places to be able to go, many young people are forced to stay indoors or hang around on the streets.

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

I hope to better the health and well-being of as many young people as I can and create a better environment in order to try and achieve a better quality of life. In all, I will try my best to make the life of young people more enjoyable.

What is your future career ambition?

I hope to become an MP or possibly open my own business.

Which public figure do you most admire and why?

The public figure I admire the most is Gordon Brown. I admire him because I believe he makes good decisions and I believe the education plans he announced are very good. Unlike many politicians I think he speaks a lot of sense, and he doesn't appear to me as the type of person that would make a false statement in order to win the approval of the public.

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

I would like to tell them to stop arguing in Parliament and to start discussing the issues instead. I think the British public have heard enough pointless bickering that sometimes takes place.
