“I told them how it was an NHS life-saving experience with my little boy that had actually brought me into politics and that my first ever campaign experience was with Save the DGH over our maternity services – before any of them had been born.”
Mrs Ansell said the girls had clearly put a great deal of time and thought into their questions.
She added: “I told them I was very proud to be their MP and hoped one of them would be one day inspired to follow in my footsteps.”
