Former Conservative MP Defeated by Labour in North East Somerset
Dan Norris of Labour secures victory with decisive majority
Jacob Rees-Mogg, the prominent Conservative MP and former Minister for Brexit Opportunities and Government Efficiency, has lost his parliamentary seat in the North East Somerset constituency. Labour's Dan Norris emerged victorious in the newly created seat, securing 20,739 votes compared to Rees-Mogg's 15,420.
Norris, a former West of England mayor and environmental campaigner, expressed his gratitude to voters and pledged to represent their interests in Parliament. He remarked, "To represent Somerset in Parliament has been a huge honour."
In a significant turn of events, the defeat of Rees-Mogg marks a major blow to the Conservative Party. Known for his staunchly Eurosceptic views and self-styled Victorian sensibilities, Rees-Mogg had served as a controversial figure in British politics.
