Mt Mee Students apply interview pressure on Wyatt Roy MP (Podcast)

It might be too early for primary school students to vote in elections, but yesterday students from Mt Mee State School had the opportunity to grill their Federal Member of Parliament.

The students yesterday quizzed Wyatt Roy on live radio. Mr Roy was submitted to gruelling questions from three students on local community radio station 101.5FM.

Mr Roy answered questions on a range of topics including the Carbon Tax, the role of a politician and what he has done over the past twelve months.

On a lighter note, one student asked for some advice on how someone could be involved in politics, to which Mr Roy answered “lots of hard work” and said it was important to get out and have a go.

Mr Roy said that the interview with the students was tougher than many he had done in Canberra.
