Which political issues are you
most passionate about?
The political issue I feel most passionate about is equal rights. I believe in equal rights and I also believe that it must be exercised in our everyday life.
What do you feel is the biggest
issue for young people in your constituency?
The biggest issue for young people in my constituency is that they do not know what is on offer regarding youth activities, for some it is the issue of bullying and for others it is the fear of racial discrimination.
What do you hope to achieve during
your term of office?
I hope to achieve the promotion of youth activities, racial equality as well as tackling bullying in school.
What is your future career ambition?
Being a very open-minded individual I would say that the legal, political, financial or property sectors are the routes I will follow. Therefore I would like to pursuit a degree in Law, Social sciences, Real estate Management or Economics.
Which public figure do you most
admire and why?
The public figure I admire the most is Nelson Mandela because he was a voice for his people and he fought for equal rights, like him I want to be a voice for the young people in my constituency. Another public figure that I admire the most is Dame Kelly Holmes; besides her sporting achievements she is also a keen motivator for young people as she encourages them that they can be the best in what they do regardless of their background. In other words it is your determination that takes you a long way.
If there was one message you could
send to the government, what would it be?
Build a secure future for Britain by empowering our generation and getting us more involved in political issues.
Additional comments:
I would like the UKYP to come together to promote its existence.
