Constituency:
Stoke-on-Trent

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

Which political issues are you most passionate about?

Because of the background I am from I am most passionate about children in care (social services) being able to have the same opportunities as everyone else in Stoke-on-Trent and the UK. Coming from the care system myself I try to be a role model for the other young people in the system.

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

I think that the biggest issue in my constituency is racism because we live in a multi- cultural society in a very small city and we need to appreciate every race, colour and opinion to get along.

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

In my term of office I hope to achieve the respect of my peers, elders and myself to be able to say that I have made a difference for the young people of Stoke-on-Trent and the UK.

What is your future career ambition?

My future career ambition is to leave collage with A levels and then move on to university and continue to study performing arts. Then hopefully find a living in the business doing either acting, singing or dancing, but also be involved in a lot of charity events and maybe do some youth work. Then open a young people's theatre when I retire.

Which public figure do you most admire and why?

The public figure I admire the most is Neil Morrissey because he was bought up in the care system and he influenced me to be an actor because he made me believe that it is possible. He is also involved with a lot of charities and I think that is a person I would like to be like in the future.

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

I would most probably say give more money to charity and youth organizations, so they can help the next generation to be respectful and know enough about the planet to keep life moving on and on.
