Jo inspired me to go back into politics. After realising that life is too short and precious to wait for other people to solve problems, I decided to be more like Jo. That week, I rejoined my local Labour party, and became a town councillor and then a county councillor, and ultimately leader of Shropshire Labour group. I stood as the parliamentary candidate for the seat in 2019, and I returned this year to win and become our MP, thanks in no small measure to the support of my husband John and the patience of my children Annabel and Edward.
