Max Burt

Max is a 44 year old Londoner. He grew up in Hampstead and now lives in west London, slap bang in between the tower blocks of Shepherd's Bush and the mansion blocks of Holland Park.

A life threatening car crash in 1999 left him with severe disabilities. He has now ‘rebuilt’ his life. After co-running a large advertising agency in his pre-accident days, Max now runs a business as a marketing consultant and spends time running a charity, aiming for more inclusion in mainstream society for people with disabilities.

He wants to run as a Libertas candidate for London, not only because he wholeheartedly agrees with the need for democracy and transparency in Europe, but also because he wants to apply his experiences as one of ‘the disabled’ to lobbying for the greater integration of all the groups that make up Londoners.
