Nominative determinism?

Good riddance

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Former Tory whip Chris Pincher has resigned his seat after losing his appeal against a proposed suspension from the Commons for drunkenly groping two men.

The Parliament's standards committee found the Tamworth MP groped two men at London's Carlton Club.

It meant that if MPs had approved the recommendation - usually a formality - it would have triggered a recall petition which could have led to a by-election.

He said: "I do not want my constituents to be put to further uncertainty, and so in consequence I have made arrangements to resign and leave the Commons."

Following the inquiry, a standards committee concluded his actions had been "profoundly damaging" to Parliament's reputation.

Eddie Hughes, the current MP for Walsall North, has already been selected to represent the party in Tamworth at the next general election, following boundary changes, but has confirmed he will not be standing in a by-election.

The original article contains 278 words, the summary contains 149 words. Saved 46%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

Looking at Tamworth’s voting history, I think it’ll probably be a fairly close-run thing. Labour have held the seat in the past, but it has been getting steadily more conservative over the last decade to the point where I’m not convinced that it’ll be easy for Labour to pick up. There’s very little Lib Dem presence to encourage tactical voting either.

I’ve set up a play money prediction market here if you think you know better which way it will go.
