Early Life
John Edward Wilfred (Born 8th December, 1970) is a British Politician and the current Mayor/Sheriff of Nottingham. John Edward Wilfred was born in Berlin, Germany on the 8th of December 1970 to parents Thomas Manson Wilfred and Bertha Wilfred (née Kampla). Despite being born in Germany, Wilfred spent most of his early life in Damascus, Syria. It is still unknown as to why Wilfred was brought here when he was young, regarding the matter he said "When we returned to Berlin, people gave us odd looks but it also looked they knew full well why we had been to Syria, it felt alienating, it felt like everyone but me knew why we went there". Upon his return to Berlin, Wilfred took up jobs at Local Farms, Mining Facilities and Restaurants. In 1990, when working at a German Restaurant in Berlin, Wilfred entered a debate with a group of drunken KPD Supporters who protested Erich Honecker's leadership of the party. It was here that he found his passion for Debate and Politics, saying "Debate makes the world go around, When I was 19 I had a debate with members of the KPD that lasted for 3 and a half hours. However, I made the mistake of arguing with Communists for that long, I had no time to argue, I had work to do!".
