The Shropshire resident, who became an internet sensation in 2020 at a bad-tempered council meeting, is one of 12 taking part in Make Me Prime Minister.

Make Me Prime Minister will also see Express & Star and Shropshire Star writer Mark Andrews question the would-be political leaders as they attempt to promote their energy policies in Shrewsbury.Billed as The Apprentice for would-be politicians, the series will see former Labour Party spin doctor Alistair Campbell and ex Tory Party chairman Sayeda Warsi follow 12 candidates as they are set a variety of tasks in which they pitch their policies.

"These people are not fit to tell the country what to do, because they exist in an entirely hermetically-sealed bubble of political consideration and not human experience.” Alice's political hero is Margaret Thatcher, who she met when she was very young. She describes herself as a ‘patriot’ who genuinely cares about the interests of the nation and would like Britain to be more self-sufficient. She also wants to see a revival of British industry and agriculture.

She said: “I’d been labouring under the misapprehension that the government was there to take care of us. I now realise this is a fallacy… they are there to pander to the vested interests, to line their own pockets, and feather their own nests, and are probably at the behest of multinational corporations and lobbyists…”

He isn’t convinced climate change it’s as bad as people make out and believes the current issues in society stem back to education. He also feels the UK is severely behind other countries when it comes to supervised drug consumption rooms and believes it’s massively impacting the NHS. He would like the UK to look at preventing drug use, and promoting safe drug use, because in his opinion, criminalisation hasn’t worked.

He’d also like to see students taught both the good and bad when it comes to the UK and is a great believer in that a happier and healthier public makes a happier and healthier economy. He would like to be the first British-Afghan refugee leader and is passionate about business, International Trade and attracting investment from overseas. Given the opportunity, he would like to tackle crime in society, calling it a huge challenge facing different communities across the country.

She said: “I can understand my audience, and what they require from me. And I think I’m led by my morals and values as well. That’s not always the case in politics, but I think people are looking for someone who they can trust, who is honest and open. I think we’ve lost that layer of trust. Seeing people lying and just accepting it has become normalised, unfortunately.”

The woman overstepped the mark and should apologise for her actions, we’ve just got rid of one for doing this why would you want another? I can’t believe that people actually applauded her unconstitutional actions and the appalling way in which she behaved.

We need her as PM right now!

She’s going to be balsy … love it
