Pauline Latham OBE MP met with a number of politics students at Repton School in Derby on Friday 25 November. She discussed her experiences at the heart of the British political system and, having been directly involved in local issues since 1987, that has included time serving as a Councillor, Mayor of Derby and, currently, as MP for Mid Derbyshire.
The evening proved a really interesting one and the enthusiastic students offered a range of fascinating and probing queries. Pauline was pleased to hear back from a teacher at the school that, following the event, a couple of pupils were asking about how to get more involved with politics and even become MPs - hopefully signalling that she created a positive impression about the positive change politicians can bring about!
