Which political issues are you most passionate about?

The political issues that I am most passionate about are the Fares Fair campaign and the No To Fees Campaign, as well as the Recycling Campaign. I think these are the most important as they are the campaigns that will affect the younger generation the most like me. Therefore we must do things that will help people in the next generation as well.

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

In my constituency I would say that the issue which must be mostly considered on is the Fares Fare campaign as the prices of the buses are increasing rapidly and it really affects all the young people that travel by bus frequently. As well as this it is also the perception of the youth in the media as they are portrayed very badly even though they are not. We are working very closely with councillors to achieve our target to insert man of the good points of the youth in St. Helens.

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

I hope to achieve my manifesto and I hope the all the young people in St.Helens will get represented in an excellent way.

What is your future career ambition?

In the future I would like to go to Oxford University and study Medical Sciences. Then become a neurosurgeon.

Which public figure do you most admire and why?

I admire Martin Luther King Jr, as he won many rights for the black people of America using non-violence.

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

The one thing that I would say to the government would be that they should think about the young people as well as they are the future of the world.
