THROUGHOUT the c o u r s e -o f a year,., dozens of pupils from schools throughout the Kibble 'Valley spend a week in the newsroom of the Clitheroe Advertiser and .Times. Some go on to pursue careers in journalism, others embark on media-related degrees. All are asked to com­ pile a feature on any su b je c t which then goes forward to the annual Tim Procter Memorial Award. Clitheroe Royal


Grammar School pupil Abigail "Watson (pic­ tured) joined us for a week during her school holidays and has writ­ ten about the time she spent behind-the- scenes of the House of Commons.


ON April 16th I walked nervously up to a securi­ ty machine and while handing over my bag I asked for Nigel Evan’s office. I explained that I was


in London on work expe­ rience, to get an insight into the workings of Government and into the running of the Kib­ ble Valley. I remember being


shown round the Houses ' of Parliament and being stood in the middle of ‘The Member’s Lobby’ surrounded by statues of previous Prime Minis­ ters - noting Winston Churchill’s unusually shiny boot toe, thanks ' to a tradition among


,MP’s of rubbing it for luck. The House of Commons contained rows of dark ■ wood benches, backed in a rich, green leather. I was surprised.at how small the room w a s - i t does- n’t quite fit all the.MPs in apparently, making the room rather comfy


during fully-attended votes. I was told that an alarm, sounds in the


offices to call MPs to vote, meaning everyone else must avoid lifts so that frantic Members of Parliament can reach the House in time. The House of Lords


seemed, in contrast, to glint with gold and red, echoing worth about its • walls. A grand, red wool- ■ sack sits in the centre - ■/ usually holding the Lord Speaker. - The walkway leading


away is'/dotted with.: bikes ( I. must/admit' being disappointed at not seeing David Cameron’s bike at the time, so I could try and'


■spot it 'again more- recently, ridden by its- new“owner”). - On reaching Portcullis


House I involuntarily craned my neck to look through the impressive, glass roof, as showers trickled down the slop­ ing sides, leaving the people inside dry and. oblivious, as they busied ‘


, about paperwork. The; corridors on which the MPs’ offices were based / reminded me of' the secret passageways in; eccentric, old houses.


with each door seeming­ ly blending into the wall’s wood'panelling. • The office was split


into two halves, with the researchers working on one side. My desk


looked on to the London Eye and I remember


seeing it out the corner of my eye while working, every so often acknowl­ edging it with a glance. ■ I did a lot of con­


stituency work: dealing with letters, invitations , and leaflets; each com-


■ment, ; request and- protest requiring an individual and careful , response. I went during recess, which is the qui­ etest point of the sea- , son, however, the. i researchers were still


busy sorting out the. RibbleValley’sprob-


/lems;. • L really enjoyed r ^ i l


- time at the offices r a | Portcullis House and felt :


'it gave me a really good - idea about what is done


-behind-The; scenes of;,


./Government and, more importantly, what Nigel ,


Evans, ' and h's researchers, do for the
