Generation 2015 profiles: Daniel Biggins

I was born in Newcastle and I am 18 years old. My mam works for the NHS and my dad is a finance officer.

I go to Thorp Academy Sixth Form in Ryton where I study physics, politics and history. I also work part-time for McDonalds and I am in the latter stages of joining the Royal Marines Reserves.

I believe that a country can't spend its way out of debt. I am also concerned with youth homelessness and other social issues, particularly Alzheimer's and dementia.
