Buckinghamshire MP promoted to shadow cabinet under Kemi Badenoch reshuffle
A Buckinghamshire MP has been given a new role in the shadow cabinet.
Joy Morrissey, the Conservative MP for Beaconsfield, which includes Marlow and several south Bucks villages, has been appointed shadow minister for women and equalities.
She announced her appointment by saying: “It is a huge privilege to have been asked by Kemi Badenoch to join the shadow cabinet as shadow minister for women and equalities.
“I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to take on this role and to play my part in holding Labour to account on issues that matter to women, girls and families across the country.
“As we prepare for the next Conservative government and our departure from the ECHR, it is vital that we have strong and coherent equality laws that work for the British people.
“There is a lot of work to do, and I’m looking forward to getting started.”
