[edit] Early life
Main was born in Cardiff. She went to the comprehensive Bishop of Llandaff Secondary School (now the Bishop of Llandaff Church in Wales High School) on Rookwood Close in Llandaff, Cardiff. She read English at Swansea University obtaining a BA Hons, where she met her first husband, Stephen. She then obtained a PGCE from Sheffield University. She moved to the London area, and taught English and Drama at an inner London comprehensive school.
[edit] Marriages and children
Main married Stephen in 1978, and they had a son and two daughters: Nick, Claire and Jennifer. Stephen died of cancer, aged 34. In 1995, she married Andrew, an IT director, with whom she had a fourth child, Alexander.
[edit] Political career
Main's political career began in 1999 when she became a town councillor in Beaconsfield, where she still lives. She was also on South Buckinghamshire Council from 2001. In 2005, she was elected as the Member of Parliament for St Albans. Details of Main's career have recently been removed from this website by someone. At the moment, according to the Daily Telegraph [1], Main's career "hangs in the balance", as she is being investigated for allegedly misusing the parliamentary allowances system.
