A South African lawyer who arrived in Edinburgh in 2022, Mike is passionate about Edinburgh and Scotland – so much so that he has decided to stand for Parliament.
He said he cannot stand by and watch elderly people get on buses rather than stay at home since they are unable to afford the heating in winter. He said: “There are people who believe their vote doesn’t count that they are not being heard, and I want to restore the trust in politics.”
