Tory former minister’s decision to go means there will be a byelection in her Mid Bedfordshire constituency
Nadine Dorries, the Conservative former culture secretary, has announced she is standing down as an MP with immediate effect.
She made the announcement in a tweet after having reportedly been dropped from Boris Johnson’s resignation honours. The move means there will be a byelection in her Mid Bedfordshire constituency where, in 2019, the Conservatives won a 24,000 majority.
