Proceeding contribution from Philip Davies (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 31 January 2012. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Social Mobility.


Social Mobility

My hon. Friend has done far more than she has said, and has produced a book, ““If Chloe Can””, a careers book to help inspire people. It was turned into a theatre production, which is now touring the country, and I and several of our hon. Friends went to the premiere. I saw at first hand how many children from poorer backgrounds were inspired by the role models on stage that day, whom my hon. Friend brought along. Does she therefore agree that a key to introducing social mobility is to get great role models to inspire people and show them that people from their background can achieve success in life?
