I am honoured to have been elected as the new Conservative MP for Huntingdon.
This was a hard fought campaign and to win against the odds on such a bleak night for the party nationally is testament to the incredible work of everybody in this picture and many others over the past nine months.
I stood on a platform of focusing on issues that are important to local people and being a visible and accessible MP. I am hugely thankful to all those who voted for me in this election.
I will be working hard for everybody in the constituency, not only to represent them in Westminster and deliver on my local plan, but also to earn back the trust in the Conservative Party.
Thank you too to all the candidates. It takes more courage than many realise to put yourself forward for public office.
