Toby Perkins 

 

Toby won his Chesterfield seat for the fifth time at the recent general election. But how did he retain his seat throughout Labour's darkest years when colleagues around him were losing theirs? 

 

One of the most likeable MPs in the Commons was a Shadow Minister but didn't get appointed to the frontbench after the election. 

 

He talks openly and honestly about the mixed feelings he has about Labour finally forming a government, but not being a minister in it.  

 

A massive football fan, Toby also reveals which football manager he thinks he'd most be like if he chairs the Environmental Audit Committee.
