KENT NEWS: A female porn director has set her sights on becoming a star performer at Westminster in the upcoming General Election.
Anna Arrowsmith, 38, who lives in Tunbridge Wells, will contest the Gravesham seat for the Liberal Democrats at the election expected on May 6.
In doing so she is hoping to switch "porn for Parliament".
Mrs Arrowsmith runs adult film company Easy on the Eye.
As Britain's first female hardcore porn director she has made about 300 movies under the pseudonym Anna Span, winning a number of awards.
She has also penned a book to teach couples how to make porn at home, which has sold more than 22,000 copies.
Mrs Arrowsmith will take on Labour candidate Kathryn Smith and the current MP, Conservative Adam Holloway, at the General Election.
In a message posted on her Twitter page, Mrs Arrowsmith says: "From porn to Parliament, here I come!"
She lives in Tunbridge Wells with her husband Tim.
During her porn career she was named best director in the 2008 and 2009 UK Adult Film and Television Awards.
A Liberal Democrat spokesman said: "The Liberal Democrats are proud to have candidates throughout the country with a great diversity of backgrounds and life experiences.
"Anna will be a strong candidate for Gravesham and with her family links to the area we believe she is the best person to bring fairness to local people."
