MIKE Foster was taken back to his pre-Westminster teaching days this week when he visited Bishop Perowne High School.

But the Worcester MP also gained an insight into a potential future career, as he worked with Year 11 pupils in their citizenship classes.

Part of the day involved a debate on ID cards with 200 pupils acting as MPs and himself as Commons Speaker Michael Martin.

He seemed to enjoy the chance to control the debate, crying "order, order" when the students got rowdy.

So is this the future for the Worcester MP? He doesn't think so.

"It wouldn't appeal to me because I would want to argue back," he said.
