On Thursday 15th January 2026 the West Suffolk MP, Nick Timothy CBE, was made Shadow Justice Secretary by Kemi Badenoch in place of Robert Jenrick who was dismissed from the Shadow Cabinet after it was discovered he was intending to go to Reform. In making her announcement, Kemi said "as an MP, Nick has led the way in revealing the failure of West Midlands Police Chief over the Maccabi football ban, and in opposing Labour's sinister Islamophobia definition. He is a true Conservative.."
As an Association we are delighted to see the hard work and commitment of our MP rewarded at the highest level. His commitment to his constituency is very clear for all to see with his involvement in all areas. Branches are being re-formed and membership of the Association is rising. Do not believe all you read or hear in the media about the demise of the Party. There are many Conservatives alive and kicking in West Suffolk.
