I would be a good Welsh Youth Parliament speaker because I
care about justice. I am only 14 but I have suffered discrimination in another
country and have had many experiences in this life. English is my fourth
language and I am learning Welsh. I know the issues that affect young people in
Wales can be changed because other countries have different systems good and
bad. I’ve only been in Wales for one year but I already realise there’s things
the Welsh Government could change to make Wales better for young people.
The three issues I have chosen are all about justice and
access to education. The first is about asylum seekers children are not allowed
wifi, tv or any computer in their houses until they become refugees so they
cannot do schoolwork. The second is that many young Welsh people can’t afford
transport and have to walk to school up to 3 miles in the rain and in the
winter dark. We can get ill and this is dangerous for girls especially. The
third is that Welsh schools need to discuss GCSE options properly with young
people to help them understand how their choices can affect their future career.
