Calvin Bailey MBE, MP for Leyton and Wanstead, has been appointed as the UK Trade Envoy to Southern Africa.

“This is a source of particular pride for me because of my family links to the region. The connections to other countries many of us have in Leyton and Wanstead are a foundation of strength for the UK and can help our country to thrive and achieve greater security in this volatile world,” said Calvin, who was born in Zambia.

The role is unpaid and will run until the next General Election.
