HIGH Peak MP Tom Levitt has announced that he is to stand down at the next election.
In a statement Mr Levitt, who retained his seat in 2005 with a majority of 735, said: "It has been a huge privilege to represent the constituency in the House of Commons and I have enjoyed every minute of it, but it is time for me to move on."

Labour party members were told of his decision in an email sent on Wednesday evening.

A Hardworking High Peak Decorator,

So Mr Levitt is stepping off the gravy train? At least we know that he’ll do so into a very comfortable home.

We know he wont be in any danger from dodgy electrics, he did have a full “electrical safety check in 2004 (Cost £176.25)

And now he has more time on his hands he will be able to socialise more, perhaps have friends over ? Oh how nice that will be for his guests, sleeping on a nice sofa bed (Cost £1599)

Stepping from their lovely (and rather expensive, in my opinion) put-you-up. They will be able to walk effortlessly through his home, on the most wonderful wooden flooring (Cost £4000)

Through to the kitchen to get a drink from his new fridge (Cost £180). Perhaps they’ll fancy a good drink of Buxtons finest export, direct from his new “Kitchen Tap” (Cost £229)

Then its time to freshen up so whilst they marvel at the decoration and minor building work he has had done in his constituency home (Cost £1750). They can place there glass on the Monterey sideboard (Cost £795) and luxuriate in his latest addition to his lovely home, a lovely bathroom (Cost £5500)

We hope you have a lovely retirement Mr Levitt.
