The Conservative MP for Hereford and South Herefordshire, Jesse Norman, has quickly established a reputation as the backbencher to watch among the 2010 intake of new MPs.
A former adviser to chancellor, George Osborne, he has won press plaudits for his successful campaign to claw back rebates from excessive profits made by PFI deals, and now serves as chair of the all-party parliamentary group on employee ownership. Coalition ministers envisage staff mutuals as playing a major part in a reformed public sector landscape, so his skill in marshalling the debate and communications prowess are likely to be keenly scrutinised.
