Shrewsbury-born Suzanne Evans will be going up against current Conservative MP Daniel Kawczynski next May.

Ms Evans, who once worked for the BBC, was a Tory councillor who defected to Ukip in the London borough of Merton. She lost her seat, and now plans a return from the capital to her home town.
