Remember the 1980s/1990s?
About Me
- Antoine Tinnion
- Northumberland, United Kingdom
- I was born in Alston, Cumbria and raised in Newcastle by my mum in a single-parent family. My grandfather and both great-grandfathers on my mother's side were miners. I won a fee-assisted place to Newcastle RGS, and appreciate more than anyone the difference in life a good education makes. After school I went on to Cambridge, Oxford and Harvard Law School where I obtained a first class degree in Law, a Master degree in Economics and Politics, and a Masters degree in Law. I work as a barrister, and my wife and I have two fantastic kids, the eldest of whom was born at Hexham General Hospital. I’m the only one of the main party candidates to be North East "born and bred".

Hard to forget when the police vans still drive around with pull down windscreen visors and they dress like para-military riot police.
In the late 70's:
The sky still glowed red over Consett - gone.
There were pits in the City of Durham (where I then lived) - gone.
There was shipbuilding on the Wear - gone.
There was wagon building at Shildon - gone.
Hard to forget what happened in the 80s.
