Local election results 2024 live: Sadiq Khan wins in London as West Midlands due to declare - BBC News | |
(32 minutes later) | |
We're still waiting on results from the West Midlands - but Labour think Richard Parker has won it. So who is he? | |
Parker is the son of a docker and school secretary who left school at 16. | |
In 1989, he joined accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers and managed their relationship with the Labour Party for five years, before leaving to start a firm working with small and medium-sized companies and social enterprises. | |
He has described his move into politics as the "most important thing I've done in my life". | |
Before the election, he pledged to bring the region's buses under public control and revamp its high streets. | |
He has also said he wants to create 150,000 extra jobs, tackle crime, and crack down on rogue landlords. | |
