Trudy has enjoyed a Q&A session with pupils from St Bees School.
Trudy was the school’s guest for a special assembly, during which she shared the story of her journey into politics before answering some wide-ranging and probing questions from the pupils.
Topics covered included electric vehicles, social media, gender stereotypes and Brexit.
Trudy said: “I was extremely impressed by the pupils’ inquisitiveness, and their questions were very well researched and constructed.
“It’s clear that the pupils at St Bees have a good knowledge of local and national issues and are keen to learn more.
“It was my pleasure to answer their questions and I hope the session gave them further insight into how local communities and the Government operate.”
Headmaster Robin Silk added: “Not only did Mrs Harrison’s visit give our students the chance to ask some burning questions important to them, but meeting an MP inspires individuals into learning more about our political landscape and future careers. A successful afternoon for all!”
