PUPILS at St Peter's Primary School, Lower Heswall, interviewed MP Ben Chapman as part of a new 'Domesday Book' for the Millennium.

The Wirral South MP was probed for the world's biggest school Internet project which offers free resources for every school in the UK.

From September to December children are being given 'investigations' to carry out, linked to the National Curriculum. The children will talk to people in their communities about where they live and what they do.

Each child's work is put onto the Tesco Net 2000 Website either at school or in one of the 340 special Internet Centres in Tesco stores.

Mr Chapman was quizzed as part of an investigation called 'A Guide to Being an MP in the UK'.

Said Mr Chapman: "The questions were quite searching and involved my activities as an MP, my hopes for the new Millennium, my opinions of life today, as well as looking back to my time in school.

"People must, however, wait until January 1 before they can see the full interview when it is posted on the Internet."
