About Me
Richard and I have been together since October 1994 and still love each other into little meatballs. We both went to school in Stockport, but actually met in London through Doctor Who, years later. Big influence: I became a voracious reader as a boy in order to read Doctor Who books, and got involved in politics because Doctor Who gave me an instinct for freedom and a desire to change the world. We’re still wildly excited about the new series, and our Isle of Dogs flat has thousands of books and DVDs (films spanning 90 years, The Avengers, Quatermass, I Claudius and many more). Plus a fluffy elephant. I believe in freedom from poverty, ignorance and conformity, and am a thoroughly Liberal member of the Liberal Democrats. I was national Chair of the Lib Dem Youth and Students in ‘94-5 (my 15 minutes of fame, attacks in the Daily Mail and all) and am now back on the party’s Policy Committee, having taken a year’s break after ten years on there (including four as Vice-Chair). I stood for Parliament both in 1997 and in 2001. Other interests include slightly wussy naturism, and of course cooking; we probably eat too much, but enjoy it.
