Met him a few years ago.
Took 4 teenagers (year 10) on a trip. They had been invited by the department of international trade, and the young enterprise, on an event where various business people were saying what they did. Most were trying to cozy up to the two mps who were present. He came over to chat to the kids about business amd spent ages explaining what he did, letting them ask questions and generally being a lovely bloke. Said he'd rather talk to "young uns" as they ask the right questions. Gage me a card and offered a trip to Accrington and a stadium tour with a chat about the business there (they were business studies students). Absolute gent and the kids went away so happy that they'd met (I'm their words) a proper business man. They didn't care for the MP.
