My mission is to help keep the streets of Salford as safe as possible for residents and visitors there.

History

2011 Ballot Run
Knight Warrior declared an intention to run for Mayor of Salford, which was made the news in the British media. However, his bid to raise the deposit money required to run on the ballot failed due to lack of donations, so he was forced to cancel plans to run. Knight Warrior then declared he would run for the Salford and Eccles MP seat at the next general election.[1][2]

Out of Retirement
On December 19th, 2017, Knight Warrior announced that he was coming out of retirement.[7]
UKI Summit
In April of 2018, The UKI Central hosted a meet-up between Lord Mole, Shipwreck of the UKI London, and Knight Warrior.[8]
