Here's the video manifesto of Omar Sharif for the Dorset Youth Parliament 2008 the three issues he is campaigning on are as follows:
Improving skate parks and sports equipment
Schools staying to a structured homework schedule
Discounted or free bus passes for all children
Originally 24 people from the whole of Dorset decided to campaign; however when asked to record a video manifesto, only 7 candidates remained, and Omar is one of them.
Polling booths, information and DVD's of all the candidates have been sent to all schools in the county on the 17th January 2008. We look forward to the results
