Candidate Statement: I am running for the Welsh Youth
Parliament to ensure that every single young person within my constituency
feels that their voice can be heard on the national stage. I believe that the
biggest issues in our society are often those that aren't discussed, a problem
that I argue stems from the youth of today being largely ignored by the
politicians that run our country. My
objective is to ensure that no matter your race, sexuality, religion, gender
identity, or social background, you feel represented by my campaign.
Coming from working-class roots myself, the values of hard
work and community spirit that Wales prides itself on are central to my own
beliefs. I wish to be a voice for those who are just like me; the children of
the parents that work hard to drive this nation forward. This is one of the
many reasons why I am an ideal candidate to represent your interests in the
Senedd.
If successful, my platform will largely focus upon improving
the lives of young people in Wales, including greater access to healthcare, providing
more opportunities for success, and lobbying the government to cut the cost of
living for families on a limited income.
