25-year-old Keir Mather elected after winning Selby and Ainsty by-election

Описание: Johnny Mercer has compared Labour’s new MP for Selby and Ainsty to an “Inbetweener” as he made a jibe over his age.

Keir Mather, 25, became the ‘Baby of the House’ – the youngest member of the Commons – overnight as Labour secured a historic victory in the Yorkshire seat.

The party overturned its largest ever majority at a by-election, winning by more than 4,000 votes. The Tories won Selby and Ainsty with a majority of 20,137 at the last general election.
