This morning, I went along and spoke to Year 5 pupils at Hurst Park Primary School in West Molesey. I spoke to the class, who have been learning about democracy, about the role of an MP and what I do as Minister in the government. I then took some questions from the engaged youngsters on everything from local community issues to my favourite football team.
My thanks to the class teacher Mr Mantle for not only inviting me to speak to the pupils, but also inspiring the children to learn about the development of democracy, from Ancient Greek civilisation to modern-day Britain
