Wells MP James Heappey is endorsing Liz Truss to be the next Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.
Mr Heappey has worked closely with the Foreign Secretary and believes she is the right person to unite the country and take the Government forward.
He said: "I have endorsed Liz Truss to be our next Prime Minister and many colleagues have agreed in the past few days, with her votes from MPs having steadily risen. I took careful consideration on this choice.
I have worked closely with Liz on one of the biggest Defence, Security and Foreign policy challenges we have faced in decades. She has been fearless in making the right decisions, and she makes the right decisions on big national security issues.
I have been in meetings with her which you will not know about for 30 years, so I very much know what she offers."
