Name: Ben Lacey

Position: MYP

Constituency:
North Yorkshire

 

Which political issues are you most passionate about?

Environmental issues, votes at 16, mental and emotional health, and cheap and frequent local transport for all young people, particularly in rural areas.

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

Transport and activities.

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

Better support for emotionally effected young people, a bus pass for all under 18s and a move towards votes at 16.

What is your future career ambition?

Something in the theatre. Possibly directing.

Which public figure do you most admire and why?

I know he’s not alive but Arthur Wellsely. He went to war to help weaker countries and after a successful campaign where he became his soldiers’ biggest moral support, he still had time to become the most popular and fair prime minister in our history (in my opinion).

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

Sort your act out. Let’s stop worrying about maintaining power and start servicing the country, stop lying and committing unrealistically. Oh and if you’re going to tax, send to war and allow someone to marry, GIVE THEM THE VOTE!!!
