Boris Johnson’s old constituency will be vacant at the next election - opening up an opportunity for him to launch a “chicken run” for the safe seat.
John Howell, who replaced him as the MP for Henley when he became Mayor of London in 2008, has announced he’ll be retiring.
The ex-PM has faced speculation he could attempt to switch to the safer seat after his majority in Uxbridge and South Ruislip dipped from 10,695 in 2015 to just 7,210 at the 2019 election.
