Paul Maynard

May 28, 2010

This month’s issue of Disability Now carries an interview with newly elected Conservative MP Paul Maynard, who has CP. Paul makes one point very clear in the interview- he will do his best for disabled people, but he was elected by his constituents, not the disabled community, and he has much more to say on a wide range of issues.

He says that if he proves himself to be a good politician, he hopes that his victory will encourage more disabled people to enter Parliament. He’s certainly an inspiration to me. I’m thrilled to see him in Parliament, and, political views aside, I wish him every success.

What are you thinking?
