"We have a new Prime Minister and MPs have a duty to support him and ensure he can get business through Parliament. Local party members told me their priority was to see the party unite and move forward and that is what has now happened. I know Rishi well, he became an MP in 2015 when I did. He is a decent person, he’s bright, diligent and is the right person to be Prime Minister at this hugely challenging time.

Shrewsbury & Atcham's Conservative MP, Daniel Kawczynski, said unity would be key as Mr Sunak attempts to steer the country away from recession. Wrekin MP, Mark Pritchard said:"Whoever people supported it’s now time for the Conservative Party to unite behind the new Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and get the UK’s economy back on track. It is in the national interest he succeeds. He will have my full support."

Mr Williams said the overriding concern would be dealing with the economic problems, adding:"That is the top thing, it is what my constituents and businesses in Montgomeryshire are concerned about – they are asking us to steady the economic situation."North Shropshire's Liberal Democrat MP Helen Morgan said that voters had been"repeatedly let down".The bill will be given its First Reading on Wednesday after Prime Minister's Questions.

He said:"Sunak has been crowned Prime Minister without a single vote being cast - even the Chinese president had to secure some votes.

Meanwhile Telford's self anointed Leader who took over T&W Council in a 2016 coup without a single public vote being cast is calling for a GE because.. Mr Sunak was elected without a public vote being cast.. No mirrors in Mr Davies' house apparently?

The Shropshire Tories can't be too disappointed given who they have voted as their local MPs, especially the one in Shrewsbury!
