This week, Rachel welcomed A Level Law pupils and staff from Farnley Academy to Parliament as part of a packed two day trip to London.

After the group had a chance to explore Parliament on a tour, Rachel spoke to them about her experiences as an MP, and explained the reasons why she entered politics and the importance of political participation.

The pupils were also keen to ask Rachel about the role of an MP both in Leeds West and in Westminster, as well as about the workings of Parliament.

Rachel would like to thank Farnley Academy for their visit, and for a lively and interesting discussion about political issues and the legal aspects of parliamentary life.
