Paul Maynard is the Conservative Member of Parliament for Blackpool North and Cleveleys. Born in Cheshire in 1975, Paul started his education at a special school in Winsford and went on to study History at Oxford University. For a number of years prior to entering parliament Paul worked for the Rt Hon Dr Liam Fox.
Since becoming the MP for Blackpool North and Cleveleys, after achieving a 6.5% swing from Labour, Paul has dedicated himself to a number of issues. In his capacity as a member of the Transport Select Committee Paul regularly holds the Government to account on all aspects of its road, rail and aviation policies. A commitment to improving the quality of transport provision in Northern England is a continued aspect of Paul's parliamentary work. Additionally Paul has become a strong advocate on speech and language therapy and epilepsy issues, leading debates on both. Paul has also participated in the establishment of All Party Parliamentary groups on Muscular Dystrophy and Social Tourism.
Of his role as a Parliamentarian Paul says "I feel that public service is such a devalued concept these days that you have a responsibility to put yourself forward, and show that being an MP is about making a difference - a cliché now, maybe - and not just walking by on the other side of the road. " When it comes to the constituency he represents Paul says that he is "thrilled to have the chance to represent both Cleveleys and the parts of Blackpool to the north of the North Pier. They are both towns with long and proud histories, but we should all be optimistic about their future too - I know I am".
