Name: Lauren
Fry
Status: Deputy MYP
Constituency:
North Somerset
--------------------------------------------------------
Which political issues are you
most passionate about?
The rate of child poverty in Britain today compared to other economically powerful countries in Europe, and the chaos our courts are in due to over-crowding in prisons, which results in sex offenders being released.
What do you feel is the biggest
issue for young people in your constituency?
The biggest issue in my constituency is the media representation of young people. Not just bad publicity, but also lack of good publicity and the way in which we are portrayed.
What do you hope to achieve during
your term of office?
I hope to encourage other young people to participate in UKYP or similar organisations, as well as work on changing the negative image of young people in today’s society.
What is your future career ambition?
In the future I wish to be a journalist.
Which public figure do you most
admire and why?
I most admire Angelina Jolie for all the work she does for many charities and her ability to lead a modest life despite her fame and fortune.
If there was one message you could
send to the government, what would it be?
I would ask them to take more notice of what young people want, rather than what the adults want for us.
