Hide AdCllr Liz Leffman, leader of Oxfordshire County Council, who attended the Oxford and Banbury events, said: “I would like to thank our young people from across Oxfordshire who attended our pizza and politics events across the county.
“I was inspired by their questions and contributions, which were insightful and eye-opening, and will ensure that young people's voices continue to be heard as part of our future generations programme of work.”
As well as tucking into the pizzas, the attendees discussed local and national government and were able to ask the MP’s questions of importance to them.
