An MP turned tourguide to help a group of readers to take a look around one of the most well-known buildings in the world - the Palace of Westminster.

Carshalton and Wallington MP Tom Brake gave 40 people a guided tour around the Houses of Parliament taking in sights including the Debating Chamber and Big Ben after he invited Sutton Guardian readers to apply for tickets.

Mr Brake said: "It was great to welcome so many Sutton residents to Westminster and to show them Parliament in action.

"You don’t have to become an MP to gain free entry to the Houses of Parliament - I am always more than happy to give local people or groups the opportunity to visit."

Anyone can apply to have a tour of Parliament through their local MP. For more information, email info@tombrake.co.uk.
