Nicholas is not a politician but, frustrated by the waste and mismanagement in which the EU community indulges, he can no longer stand on the touchline and criticise without actively trying to do something to stop it. While recognising that root and branch reform will be an uphill struggle, he nevertheless sees Libertas as a catalyst for change at last.Trained as a lawyer, his commercial background has been in senior IT management all over the World. Nicholas (62) speaks German and French fluently, shares his life between homes in the UK and France, has close family ties with Germany, and his wife, Rosemary is Canadian. Together they brought up a severely disabled daughter, in the course of which they have been heavily involved in charitable work.
One of Nicholas’s proudest achievements was leading a group of national charities to persuade 450 Members of Parliament to spend a day with a disabled person in the International Year of Disabled Persons (1981), an initiative which lead to far greater awareness of disability in Parliament.
