Nick Buckley is a rarity in Britain. He is an independent thinker that wants to bring local political change with common sense policies.
He stood as a candidate for Reform in the Mayor of Manchester Election four years ago but now stands as an independent in the upcoming election in May.
We start by discussing Nick's background, born and raised in Manchester, which is the 3rd largest urban area in England after London and Birmingham.
For well over a decade Nick ran a charity to deal with homelessness and to help offer solutions.
He shares why he has entered the world of Politics, how he has seen the police in Manchester become completely ineffective and crime rise and rise.
This all falls under the jurisdiction of the Mayor of Manchester and the current Labour offering, Andy Burnham, has simply failed to address this.
Nick's story is an example of how anyone can enter politics and try to make a difference as an independent voice.
Nick was cancelled in June 2020 from the multi award-winning charity he founded when online activists came for him for criticising Black Lives Matter. The trustees panicked, allowing Nick to be removed from his post. Within five weeks, Nick had forced the trustees to resign en-mass, and took back his role as chief executive.
Nick spent two decades preventing crime and antisocial behaviour in the toughest neighbourhoods. He promotes early intervention and personal responsibility. He is also a social campaigner on the issues that keep people in poverty and feeling victimised. Nick has experience in many fields, such as youth crime, rough sleeping, knife crime and community engagement.
