Two MLAs and an MP

First thing on Friday morning Jim Wells, DUP MLA, was our first visitor. He came in to talk to our A level Travel and Tourism class about his views in support of the Mournes becoming a National Park. Then cam John Mcallister, OUP MLA, who brought with him Owen Patterson conservative MP, Shadow Northern Ireland Secretary, who headed up to talk to our A level politics class. Busy, busy, Busy. Jim Wells remembered his last visit to Shimna, many years ago, when Shimna student Thomas O'Rourke won a poetry competition organised by the National Trust, where Jim Wells worked at the time.
