A former Bond girl is hoping to be elected as a Conservative councillor in north London.
Catherine McQueen, who starred in Die Another Day with Pierce Brosnan’s Bond, is to stand in the ward of Camden Town with Primrose Hill.
The Scottish ex-model and actress wants to clean up the area’s streets and crack down on crime, anti-social behaviour and drugs, the Times reported.
The 38-year-old Tory hopeful appeared in a minor role as a Russian model in the 2002 Bond film and has also modelled for photo shoots in magazines Marie Claire, Elle, FHM, GQ and Tatler.
She will be one of the Conservative party’s candidates to contest the north London seat, which currently has three Labour council representatives.
"I'm living with my son in what should be a residential area, but when I tell people that Camden Town is a residential area they can't believe what I'm saying,” she told the Camden New Journal.
“You have people late at night running through the streets screaming, p**sing in the streets, throwing up. And then in the day you get drug pushers."
Ms McQueen was born in Edinburgh and began modelling aged 16 before completing a degree in Law and Business from City University.
She has had acting roles in The Bill and Judge John Deed on top of touring as a DJ in clubs across the US and in Hollywood.
