We listened to the manifestos of the two party leaders before we cast our votes at the polling station using real ballot papers. It was a landslide victory for the Yes party so they took up their seats in government.
Everyone else took their seats as the opposition and the debate began. We were thinking about whether the machine from The Alchemist's Letter, which we have been looking at in our Myths and Legends work, should be banned. We came up with very convincing arguments and everyone got involved in our debate. We were all very respectful of each other's opinions even if we didn't quite agree with them! The Speaker of the House of Commons helped make sure we took it turns to speak.
It would seem that there are quite a few future politicians among us!
