Introducing Will Cheung, Council candidate in Northamptonshire

Will Cheung is a British Born Chinese member of the Liberal Democrats in Northamptonshire (Corby & East Northamptonshire constituency). He is a relative newcomer to political activism, after finding interest in the wake of Hong Kong's "Umbrella Revolution" protests of 2014. The EU membership referendum result spurred Will to pro-EU activism and subsequently joining the Liberal Democrats. He describes his motivation for joining the Liberal Democrats as a means to get involved with communities, putting into practice resisting the politics of extremism.
