Following a recent flurry of announcements of retirements by sitting Labour MPs vulnerable to a swing to the Conservatives, here is news of another who is stepping down at the next election.
Martyn Jones, MP for Clwyd South since 1987, has announced his decision to go this week, citing his desire to become a lager brewer.
This was the seat that Boris Johnson fought in 1997 and would be won by Conservative candidate John Bell (pictured) on a Labour to Conservative swing of 9.92%. John has been in place as candidate since November 2007.
