| Moving up the political ranks: MP Sam Gyimah (in blue) |
From This Is Surrey (Britain), about the Conservative Party parliamentarian: "Just two-and-a-half years since entering parliament at the 2010
election, Sam Gyimah is rising through the ranks and has been
hand-picked by the Prime Minister to be his eyes and ears in the
hallowed halls of Westminster. The East Surrey MP, as Parliamentary Private Secretary, will now
be relied upon to keep the PM abreast of feelings towards the
Government's agenda within the party, and helping with prep for Prime
Minister's Questions."
More: "He has already come under fire from the influential
ConservativeHome website which, while describing him as talented and
ambitious, questioned his ability to succeed in the role. But Mr Gyimah, who has replaced Desmond Swayne, says he is up to
his new job, having worked closely with the Prime Minister in the past,
and won't let it affect his primary position as a constituency MP."
