A NEW wave of Tory MPs have been dubbed Boris’s babies as a staggering 109 new members head to Wesminster.

Dehenna became the poster girl for Boris Johnson’s campaign on Labour’s heartland – becoming the first Tory MP for Bishop Auckland as the Conservatives broke down the Red Wall.

The 26-year-old opened up during her campaign about how her “very clear sense of justice” had been formed by the death of her dad when she was just 13.

Dad Dominic was killed by a single blow to the head in the pub.

Recounting the trauma, she said: “I can still picture it. I can tell you what the colour the walls were and everything,

“[The doctors] stopped and I went to see my dad’s body, which is not something you expect to do at such a young age.”

The former computer game shop worker then went on to study politics and worked as an aide to Jacob Rees-Mogg.

This year was her third big to be a MP, with the young woman saying she just wanted to “get things done”.

With aHarry Potter tattoo and a working-class Sheffield upbringing, Davison, calls herself Dehenna #GetBrexitDone Davison on Twitter.

Celebrating the win, she took to social media with a photo of her parents, saying: “I did it for them.

“Mum, thank you for always supporting me, whatever life has thrown at you. Dad, thank you for teaching me what it is to be a Davison. Nannan, thank you for inspiring me to be the best version of myself.”

Meanwhile, Mr Corbyn said he will step down as Labour boss before the next election after failing to win a second poll in a row – and taking the party to its worst result in 40 years.

But he refused to say when that would happen, and insisted the party had to have a period of “reflection”.
