Levy was the first Conservative to represent the constituency since its creation in 1950. It had previously been a safe Labour seat. He had campaigned on returning passenger railway services to the area and for a relief road in Blyth, which is supported by Transport for the North and other major highway improvements.
Blyth’s railway station had closed in 1964 as part of the Beeching cuts. After his election, he was accused of misleading the public, when the Nursing Times reported his social media posts from the campaign, in which he said he had worked as a mental health nurse.
The posts were later amended. Cumbria, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust confirmed he had worked as a healthcare assistant. The term “nurse” is not legally protected so his posts had not violated the Nurses Registration Act 1919.
