Matthew Taylor to chair the National Housing Federation
Matthew Taylor, the Liberal Democrat MP for Truro and St Austell, has been elected as the new chair of the National Housing Federation at its AGM in Birmingham. He will serve a three-year term.
He will stand down as an MP at the next general election.
The man is a star - how long before he's elevated to the Lords?
ReplyDeleteHe is indeed a star, he's the reason I joined the party and one of the main reasons (since the loss of Penhallagon) that Cornwall is (or was) a Lib Dem stronghold.
ReplyDeleteHe said he would stand down a long time ago.. I feel for the guy, he wanted to spend more time with his new kids (one of whom is very ill) and must surely be a bit miffed that he can't do that yet.
