That's not something you should be putting in a CV. You should begin directly with your Education, then your Experience, and then your Interests (in so far as they demonstrate relevant skills).
If the employer wants to know that you are looking to develop a career in politics, for example you are applying for an internship with an MP, then that is for the covering letter, saying why you want to do this sort of work.
