Local Liberal Democrat Euro MP, Diana Wallis, met 24 members of the East Riding Youth Assembly when it came to visit the European Parliament in Brussels today.
The East Riding Youth Assembly is a democratic body for young people set up to provide opportunities for young people from the East Riding of Yorkshire to have a real voice on issues that affect them, not only at local level, but on a county wide basis as well.
Diana Wallis, who spoke to the group and then took part in a Q&A session, said:
"It was great to meet such an enthusiastic group. For me it was particularly touching as my political life began as a local councillor on the Humberside and East Riding Councils and it is good to meet young people taking their representative role seriously from the area's Youth Assembly."
