politics Public Lecture


Pupils at St Peter’s enjoyed a lively lunchtime discussion with Thirsk and Malton MP Kevin Hollinrake. Mr Hollinrake visited St Peter’s at the invitation of a member of the UVI for lunch, after which he spoke to a large group of politics students and scholars and answered questions. 

As a North Yorkshire MP he spoke about the importance of levelling up as a long-term strategy to increase services and prosperity across the UK, with the government taking the lead on connectivity – railways and roads – to better enable the private sector to build businesses and well-paying jobs. 

A wide range of questions covered issues as diverse as fracking, equal marriage, the Northern Ireland border and freedom of speech. 

Josh Brookes, who invited Mr Hollinrake said: “It was fantastic having the chance to hear direct from Kevin about current political and economic issues, particularly surrounding the cost of living crisis. I was very impressed by his full and open answers to our questions.”
