About Me
I was born in Wallsend, grew up on Hillsview Avenue in Kenton and went to Kenton School before studying Electrical Engineering in London. I have lived in many different cities around the world, without ever for a moment forgetting where I am from: Newcastle. My values and beliefs were formed in Newcastle based on the people I grew up with and my own experiences.
My family
My maternal grandfather was a sheet metal worker in the shipyards of the Tyne during the depression. My mother grew up in poverty in Garth Heads on the quayside. In the fifties she married my father, a Nigerian student at Newcastle Medical School. In 1965 I was born, whilst they were living in Long Benton where my father had a dental practise. I was still a baby when my father took us to live in Awka, Nigeria. But two years later the Biafran Civil War broke out bringing famine with it and, as described vividly in an Evening Chronicle article in 1968, my mother, my brother and sister and I returned as refugees to Newcastle, whilst my father stayed on in the Biafran army.
This early experience of the impact of war on ordinary families left me with a strong sense of my own good fortune in living in a peaceful parliamentary democracy where it is possible to bring about change without taking up the gun or the sword. I am not a pacifist, I believe that our country is worth defending and fighting for. But we do live in a democracy and, increasingly, there are international institutions at the European and global level to enable us to pursue and defend our legitimate interests through debate and discussion.
My education
I benefited from a comprehensive, inspirational and free education for which I will always be grateful. I attended Hillsview nursery, infants and junior schools. A good start in a good school is critical in determining a child’s experience of education and the opportunities that it can bring. At Hillsview I learnt to enjoy learning, and to think that anything was possible. My mother made sure I understood how lucky I was to be able to walk two hundred yards to a great school when some children had to walk for hours to share a classroom with a hundred others.
At 11 I went to Kenton Comprehensive School. I studied for my O and A levels, but also played for our netball and hockey teams, had my first taste of public speaking and learnt to play the saxophone moderately badly. My education enabled me to hold my own with people from every walk of life, and to earn my living doing something I love, engineering. I want every child in Newcastle to have that opportunity. When I was 17 I was elected Kenton School’s MP in a mock election.
COMING SOON ON THE TONY TOKUNBO FERNANDEZ SHOW – INTERVIEW WITH LORD MAYOR OF BRADFORD- COUNCILLOR MARTIN LOVE
Martin was born in Shipley and was educated at St Walburga’s Primary School in the town, before later attending Bradford Grammar School and latterly the University of Nottingham, where he achieved a Degree in Metallurgy and Materials Science in 1982.
From 1984 onwards he worked as an IT systems developer before, in 2011, deciding that the great outdoors offered more benefits than deskwork and he trained to become a self-employed dry stone waller, which he does to this day.
Martin is now one of the longest-serving Councillors in the district. He was first elected as a Shipley ward Councillor for the Green Party in 2002 and has served on numerous committees during that time, including chairing the Environment and Waste Management Overview and Scrutiny Committee for several years.
He lives in Shipley with his wife Helen and one of their sons. A Roman Catholic, he worships at St Walburga’s in Shipley and in his spare time is a keen runner (road, cross-country and fell), along with Helen and they are both members of the Saltaire Striders Athletics Club. He is also interested in cycling and continues to serve a life sentence as a Bradford City supporter.
Martin holds environmental causes close to his heart and is a trustee of the Salt Foundation and the Sir Titus Salt Charity. He has holidayed across Europe, Australia, South East Asia, the USA, Mexico and Canada.
He prefers tea to coffee, enjoys anything from Saltaire Brewery, Timothy Taylors or other local breweries and has no allergies or specific dietary requirements.
