This is what happens if Telford & Wrekin Council leader Shaun Davies becomes an MP
If Shaun Davies becomes Telford’s new MP, then he is likely to stand down as leader of the council.
Councillor Davies is the odds-on favourite to win the seat following today's vote, with some bookmakers making him as short as 12-1 on.
According to ElectoralCalculus, the 38-year-old has a huge 91 per cent chance of winning, with the Conservatives, who currently hold the seat, lagging behind on seven percent, and Reform, on one.
Councillor Davies is the current leader of Telford & Wrekin Council and said he will stand down if he is elected MP.
“I’ve been very clear that I wouldn’t do both jobs,” said Councillor Davies.
