About Westminster Questions
Growing up, I was told in no uncertain terms who I should vote for.
While I ended up mostly agreeing with that, it came from my own stubbornness to find out who was the best political party for me!
I really felt strongly that no one should tell others what to think, who to vote for, or belittle them for having different opinions.
Westminster Questions was created because I believe we can all make better decisions when we understand the ‘why’ behind UK politics. I’m not here as an expert but as someone who values clarity and open dialogue.
My goal is to help break down the often complex world of politics, making it easier for people to engage, ask questions, and form their own views.
About Kirsty
I’m Kirsty, the voice behind Westminster Questions. I’ve always believed in the power of understanding, the value in communication and the difference both can make in our lives and communities.
With a background in education through home-educating my own two children, I’ve always had a passion for learning. I’m now in my first year of studying Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at the Open University—driven by my love of history and curiosity about the world around us.
I’ve also enjoyed the adventure of running my own businesses, from a travel blog to working as an email marketing expert. When I’m not studying or working, you’ll find me spending time at the beach with my husband, our two grown kids, and our dog, Annie.
Westminster Questions is my way of making a difference by helping others engage with UK politics on their own terms—one question at a time.
