Status: MYP
Constituency: Hampshire
--------------------------------------------------------
Which political issues are you
most passionate about?
Currently I am most passionate about environmental issues regarding climate change and the government’s lack of action to combat the issue through renewable means. Also, sex education in schools being so poor and the high costs of transport for young people.
What do you feel is the biggest
issue for young people in your constituency?
Transport, as at present it is far too expensive for young people, particularly students, therefore the costs of buses and trains should be reduced to encourage young people to use them more frequently.
What do you hope to achieve during
your term of office?
I hope to put forward the views of young people in my constituency and furthering that promote fair trade in the area, as well as hopefully reducing transport costs for young people.
What is your future career ambition?
I would love to go into journalism or film in the long term but hope to study a combination of French, Politics and History at university.
Which public figure do you most
admire and why?
Caroline Lucas is my most admired public figure because I believe she has carried out some inspiring work and improvements regarding the environment as well as peace and human rights issues to name just a few.
If there was one message you could
send to the government, what would it be?
Where to begin! I think Government sometimes loose sight of why they are there - to represent the people - so I think they should start being realistic by setting achievable goals and keeping their promises for a change.
