After a career in broadcasting following university, I was elected Member of Parliament for the Mid Staffordshire constituency, which included the City of Lichfield, in 1992. In 1997, the constituency was changed and renamed back to ‘Lichfield’ – the original Lichfield Parliamentary Constituency goes back to 1305 and was one of the very first – and I remained the MP for Lichfield until July 2024. In the 2019 General Election, I won 64.5% of the total vote out of a field of 5 candidates.
