Status: MYP

Constituency: Kent

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

Which political issues are you most passionate about?

I am most passionate about education as I feel that this effects every young person in the UK. Education entails so much more than just school, it encompasses life learning and key skills.

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

I feel that for young people in my constituency one of the biggest issues is the poor transport facilities including times, reliability and fares.

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

During my term of office I hope to continue with the citizenship and PSHE campaigns that were previously started particularly with my role of education select committee member for the South East. I also hope to be very active within UKYP and generally help the work of other MYPs who are also working for their constituents.

What is your future career ambition?

I would love to say Prime Minister but there again I think being one of the most hated people in the UK can't always be that easy! However, I would love to become the Minister for Children and Young People and represent my constituency as an MP!

Which public figure do you most admire and why?

I don't really know that I do! I just think everybody should be themselves and we should stop looking at people in the media and the public eye as perfect beings.

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

Young people deserve just the same as every other citizen - we are not just the citizens of the future, we are also the citizens of today.
