He is the Member of Parliament (MP) for Rossendale and Darwen, having won the seat at the 2010 General Election, defeating the sitting Labour Party MP Janet Anderson by a majority of 4,493 votes.[2][3] Early lifeBerry was born in Liverpool on the 29 December 1978 and educated at Liverpool College, before studying for a Law degree at Sheffield University.[1] He trained at Chester College and in the City of London, before becoming a solicitor in 2003.[1][4] He worked for a number of legal practices,[1] specialising in housing and development law.[4] Parliamentary careerBerry was elected in the 2010 General Election as MP for Rossendale and Darwen. He won against incumbent MP Janet Anderson, who held the position for eighteen years, in an 8.9% swing to the Conservatives. Berry overturned a Labour majority of 3,616 to win by 4,493 votes.[3][5] In 2010, he was appointed as the Parliamentary Private Secretary (PPS) to Grant Shapps, the Minister for Housing and Local Government at the Department of Communities and Local Government, following Shapps to the Cabinet Office in 2012.[3][4] In April 2013, the Prime Minister, David Cameron, asked Berry to join the Number 10 Policy Unit,[6] headed by Jo Johnson. His roles in this position include advising the Prime Minister on housing, regional growth and local government. Having grown his moustache for the Movember charity appeal in November 2013, Berry claimed he had been compared to the television detective Magnum, P.I., and a 1970s porn star.[7] Berry sponsored legislation, the Local Government (Religious etc. Observances) Bill, which gave councils the right to hold religious prayers at the start of meetings.[8] In the 2015 General Election, Berry was returned as MP for Rossendale and Darwen, with an increased majority of 5,654[9] From July 2015 until January 2017, Berry served on the Parliamentary Finance Committee.[10] In January 2016, the Labour Party unsuccessfully proposed an amendment in Parliament that would have required private landlords to make their homes "fit for human habitation". According to Parliament's register of interests, Berry was one of 72 Conservative MPs who voted against the amendment who personally derived an income from renting out property. The Conservative Government had responded to the amendment that they believed homes should be fit for human habitation but did not want to pass the new law that would explicitly require it.[11] Berry was opposed to Brexit prior to the 2016 Referendum.[12] Berry was again returned as MP in 2017, but with a reduced majority of 3,216.[13] Following the election, Berry was appointed Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for the Northern Powerhouse and Local Growth, making him the third Northern Powerhouse minister in the space of two years.[14] ControversiesIn May 2016, it emerged that Berry was one of a number of Conservative MPs being investigated by police in the United Kingdom general election, 2015 party spending investigation, for allegedly spending more than the legal limit on constituency election campaign expenses.[15] However, in April 2017, Lancashire Police confirmed that no further action would be taken.[16] In March 2018 he described campaigners who forced the arms firm BAE Systems to withdraw as a sponsor of a flagship arts festival in north-east England as “subsidy-addicted artists” and “snowflakes”.[17] Personal lifeBerry lives in Helmshore, Rossendale and London.[18][19] He married Charlotte Alexa in 2009[1] but they divorced in September 2016.[20] His new partner, Alice Robinson, gave birth to a baby boy in March 2017 [21] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 Berry, James Jacob Gilchrist, (Jake)', Who's Who 2012, A & C Black, an imprint of Bloomsbury Publishing plc, 2012; online edn, Oxford University Press, Dec 2011 ; online edn, Nov 2011 accessed 30 November 2012 2. ^Jake Berry MP {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140105042738/http://www.parliamentaryrecord.com/content/profiles/mp/Jake-Berry/Rossendale-and-Darwen/781 |date=5 January 2014 }}, Westminster Parliamentary Record.
