Meet the MP: Shaun Davies MP

In this episode of Meet the MP, Nicola Richards sits down with Shaun Davies, the newly elected Labour MP for Telford. From his journey in local government to his experience leading Telford & Wrekin Council, Shaun shares his insights on devolution, Labour’s election strategy, and the challenges ahead for public services.

They discuss the state of local government, how to rebuild struggling communities, and whether Reform UK poses a real threat to Labour in seats like his. Plus, Shaun reflects on the night he won his seat, the fast-moving world of Westminster, and what he wishes he had done differently along the way.
