Hello,
I am Lewis and I live in Angus. It is my goal in life to become a politician and I am a supporter of Independence.

A little about myself. I'm Currently in Senior school and I represent the Angus bit of North Tayside at the Scottish Youth Parliament, I am involved with the Angus youth congress as well as working with the school council and the local youth project "Youth power".

I like to see young people interested in Politics, I never force my beliefs on them and I let them make up their own mind on what party they support. one thing I do as a hobby is I run my own mock country on the internet "for the banter" and it's called "Hamland".

I hope I can contribute my opinions to the discussions on this forum.

Me too. Welcome to the forum, Lewis.

"It is my goal in life to become a politician".

Oh dear, are you quite sure you wouldn't rather get an honest job?

"I'm Currently in Senior school and I represent the Angus bit of North Tayside at the Scottish Youth Parliament"

Do you know about the "Lift Off" project run by the Fife and Tayside Wider Access Forum, Lewis? My fifteen year old stepdaughter is a representative for Brechin High School on that. .

"I run my own mock country on the internet 'for the banter' and it's called 'Hamland'."

My daughter spends many hours every day on the internet, taking part in various role-playing scenarios. An internet-based country sounds just the kind of thing she would be into. Would you like to give us the web address so I can pass it on to her?

"I hope I can contribute my opinions to the discussions on this forum." - I hope you do, Lewis. But I should warn you that, whatever opinions you hold, somebody is certain to express disagreement with them. We have people of many different opinions here, and they are an argumentative lot.
