MARK SIMPSON
SOUTH BELFAST
CONTESTING COUNCIL SEAT IN BALMORAL, BELFAST CITY COUNCIL
29-year-old Mark Simpson is originally from Dromara, County Down, but has lived in south Belfast for over 10 years, where he chairs the local Green Party constituency group.
Having joined the party with the hope of helping to build a Northern Ireland that values people and planet over profit, his priorities are improved public transport and reduced traffic congestion, more energy efficient housing and a reduction in the amount of Belfast’s waste sent to expensive landfill sites.
A graduate of the Queen’s University School of Law, Mark worked as a journalist for six years before returning to Queen’s, where he is currently studying for an LLM in Environmental Law and Sustainable Development.
In his spare time, he studies modern languages through the Open University and enjoys walking, cooking and music.
