Kaya Bowen

Name

Kaya Bowen.

How old are you?

24.

Where do you live?

Bristol.

What do you do?

Music producer/writer. I also do a lot of community work.

Kids?

One-year-old daughter.

Why haven't you voted before?

Not bothered about it.

What do you think of politicians?

All I see is them in that room (the House of Commons) shouting at each other.

How do you feel about voting?

Not sure I’ll vote.

What's the big issue for you in this election?

My mum moans about the price of fuel. I want to get a place of my own to live in but the waiting list if very long. There isn’t enough housing or enough help for first time buyers.

What's the first thing you'd do as Prime Minister?

The police need to be tougher on things like prostitution. I’ve seen it near where I live with girls on the street under a police poster warning against it. How can it be legal to sell sex but not legal to sell weed?
