Analysis

By Richard Moss , Look North political editor

If anyone symbolised the new Conservatism that demolished large chunks of Labour's northern red wall of seats, it was Dehenna Davison .

Working class, northern, and big on TikTok, She was The First Conservative MP to represent Bishop Auckland . She was a different type of Tory and certainly not prepared to be backbench fodder.

Her decision to take a presenting role on GB News stirred up opponents, but She was also among The First Conservatives to call on Boris Johnson to resign over Partygate.

She was an enthusiastic backer of Liz Truss but I Am not sure She and Rishi Sunak are on the same Conservative page.

That might be one reason for her decision, though She will be accused of bailing before Labour could eject her. Proposed boundary changes are quite kind, though, and - privately - Even opponents tell me She could survive.

Of the 2019 northern Conservatives, She is one who could earn more money outside Parliament than in. But She is clear her family, and her desire To Live a Little - She is only 29 - are behind her decision.

It'll be up to those Conservatives Still Standing to prove She and the Tory triumph in the North were anything More Than temporary phenomena.

She reassured her constituents She " absolutely won't be checking out" and will continue to serve them " with the same gusto and dedication right until The Day when I hand the baton on to The Next person who will have the honour of representing The Amazing people of Bishop Auckland ".

She added She was grateful to Conservative Party members who gave " a young, working class lass from Sheffield the opportunity to serve as an MP".

Bishop Auckland Conservatives chairman Luke Allan Holmes said Ms Davison had worked " tirelessly" for the constituency.

" She has been instrumental in securing over £70m of government funding for our area and has given put our area the kind of national spotlight that would have been unthinkable just a few short years ago, " He Said .

Senior Conservative MP William Wragg at The Next election.

The vice-chairman of the influential 1922 Committee of Tory backbenchers, he has held the Hazel Grove constituency in Greater Manchester since 2015.

The Conservative MPs for Norwich North, and South West Devon, also announced This Week they intended to Stand Down .
