She was first elected as the Conservative Member of Parliament for Morley and Outwood at the 2015 general election, defeating Shadow Chancellor Ed Balls.[1][2] She is an advocate for the Eurosceptic organisation Leave Means Leave.[3] Early life and careerJenkyns was born in Beverley, Humberside. After leaving school at 16, Jenkyns secured employment at Greggs bakery as her first job.[4] When 18, Jenkyns father sent her photo off to a beauty pageant and she got into the final for Miss UK.[5] Over the subsequent years Jenkyns changed employment a number of times, performing a number of different roles at different businesses. Her employment history has included being a secondary school music teacher and an executive with a management training company.[6] In her late-thirties Jenkyns started to study a degree in International Relations and Politics from the University of Lincoln and a diploma in Economics from the Open University, which she gained when in her forties.[6][8] She is a former Lincolnshire County Councillor for Boston North West, having defeated the BNP after she was forced to re-stand in a by-election, following an administrative error relating to her existing employment by the county council.[6] Having won the seat in 2009, she lost it to the UKIP candidate at the following council elections in 2013. Parliamentary careerFollowing an open primary in 2013, Jenkyns was selected to contest the Morley and Outwood parliamentary seat as the Conservative candidate.[7] In the 2015 general election, she was elected with a slim majority of 422 votes, unseating Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer Ed Balls in the process.[7]{{Better source|reason=Wikipedia guidelines state that tabloid sourcing should not be used for biographies|date=January 2019}} From July 2015, she sat on the Health Select Committee. Jenkyns supported Brexit in the 2016 EU membership referendum[8] and is a member of the Exiting the European Union Select Committee.[9] Jenkyns stated that she was willing to vote against the Government if it brought forward to the House of Commons the Chequers proposals on Brexit.[10]{{needs update|date=January 2019}} In the 2017 general election, Jenkyns increased her vote share by 11.8%, though only increased her majority to 2,104 as Labour's vote share also increased. Both were helped by the lack of a UKIP candidate in her constituency.[11] Jenkyns is a Trustee and the Regional Representative (Voluntary) for the charity MRSA Action UK, having joined following the death of her father from the superbug MRSA.[12][8] In May 2018, Jenkyns quit her role as a PPS in the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government in order to focus on fighting for Brexit.[13] In July 2018, after David Davis resigned from the Cabinet, Jenkyns called for the Prime Minister Theresa May to be replaced, saying: "Theresa May's premiership is over."[14][15] She called on the Prime Minister to return to her Lancaster House speech, stating "Prime Ministers keep their jobs when they keep their promises".[16] She submitted a formal letter to the 1922 Committee requesting a vote of confidence in Theresa May as leader of the Conservative Party; letters from 48 MPs are required to trigger a vote of confidence.[17] Following this, Iain Dale put Andrea Jenkyns on his Top 100 Most Influential Conservatives of 2018 List, that he produces annually.[18] Jenkyns created media attention in January 2019 by stating that Kenya exports flowers to the EU under WTO terms, which was proven wrong.[19]{{Better source|reason=A secondary source to indicate notability of her quote would be preferable.|date=January 2019}} Personal lifeJenkyns lives in Gildersome in West Yorkshire and London; the latter for her Parliamentary duties where she lives with her husband, fellow Conservative MP Jack Lopresti, and her son,[20] who was born in early 2017 and named Clifford George after her late father. She married Lopresti, the MP for Filton and Bradley Stoke in Bristol, in St Mary Undercroft in the Palace of Westminster on 22 December 2017,[21] two years after it had been reported that she was having an extramarital affair with him.[22][23] Jenkyns suffers from fibromyalgia and glossopharyngeal neuralgia which cause bouts of debilitating pain.[24] Jenkyns is a vegetarian and animal lover; as such, she supports the improvement of animal rights.[25] In 2015, her dogs Lady and Godiva won top prize in the Westminster Dog of the Year show.[26] References1. ^{{cite news|title=Elections 2015 - Morley & Outwood|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/politics/constituencies/E14000826|accessdate=8 May 2015|publisher=BBC News}} 2. ^{{cite news|title=Andrea Jenkyns: About the woman who toppled Ed Balls|url=http://www.itv.com/news/calendar/update/2015-05-08/andrea-jenkyns-about-the-woman-who-toppled-ed-balls/|date=8 May 2015|accessdate=8 May 2015|publisher=ITV News}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.leavemeansleave.eu/who-we-are/ |title=Co-Chairmen - Political Advisory Board - Supporters |publisher=Leave Means Leave |date=}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.andreajenkyns.co.uk/about-andrea|title=About Andrea|publisher=Personal website|accessdate=26 March 2018}} 5. ^{{cite news|last1=Scott|first1=Caroline,|title=Relative Values: Andrea Jenkyns, Tory MP, and her mum, Valerie|url=https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/relative-values-andrea-jenkins-tory-mp-and-her-mum-valerie-b9d83m9cj|work=TheTimes|date=20 March 2016|accessdate=27 March 2018|subscription=yes}} 6. ^1 2 {{cite web|last1=Gye|first1=Hugo|title=How soprano singer MP who beat Ed Balls was inspired to enter politics after seeing her father die from MRSA he contracted in NHS hospital|date=8 May 2015|url=http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3073453/Conservative-Andrea-Jenkins-took-Labour-big-hitter-Ed-Balls-seat-entered-politics-father-contracted-MRSA.html|website=MailOnline|accessdate=12 May 2015}} 7. ^1 {{cite news|last1=Bloom|first1=Dan|title=Andrea Jenkyns ousts Ed Balls: Everything you need to know about Tory who defeated Labour giant|date= 8 May 2015|url=https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/andrea-jenkyns-ousts-ed-balls-5658859|work=Daily Mirror|accessdate=12 May 2015}} 8. ^{{cite web |date=16 February 2016|url=http://blogs.spectator.co.uk/2016/02/which-tory-mps-back-brexit-who-doesnt-and-who-is-still-on-the-fence/ |title=Which Tory MPs back Brexit, who doesn't and who is still on the fence?
