Name: Sebb Thompson

Position: MYP

Constituency: Warwickshire

Which political issues are you most passionate about?

Global warming and the way we act to stop CO2 in the atmosphere from increasing and ways we can lower pollution rates.

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

Things to do and places to go in and out of in towns and cities. Youth centres and parks set up to entertain and attract young people away from boredom.

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

To secure places for young people to stay and shelter or to play and exercise. For example, a milk bar, youth café or a skate park.

What is your future career ambition?

To be a photographer or a TV/Film Director. To work for a company or to create my own business.

Which public figure do you most admire and why?

Barack Obama as he managed to become president of the United States of America when he rose from nothing and faced criticism just for his skin colour.

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

For them to raise the amount of money given to the councils so that they could allow young people areas of interest to flock to.

Additional comments:

Lots of issues these days from drugs to violence all arise from one thing, boredom! If we can get better facilities for people to get off the streets and rest at their own leisure in a safe and secure environment, then we will definitely see the decline in young people being associated as “yobs” and having ASBOs.
