Natalie meets... Edward Davey MP

It was my first time in the Houses of Parliament, so I was really nervous to meet my MP, especially after seeing George Galloway, Dave Cameron and George Osbourne whilst waiting in the Central Lobby!

Edward Davey was great – he said from the outset that he was totally supportive of Amnesty's campaign and that changing the no recourse to public funds rule was a 'no brainer'. He really listened to what I had to say and was very surprised by some of the figures. He actually thought about my questions and tried to answer them properly, which I thought never happened with politicians!
