Yes, it is love actually for bride MP
HeR Cornish accent — as rich, it is said, ‘as clotted cream’ — is regularly heard in the House of Commons.
But tomorrow, Sheryll Murray, Tory MP for South-east Cornwall, will intone across a more intimate part of the Palace of westminster – the Crypt Chapel, where she will marry Bob Davidson, manager of her Commons office.
There will be a trace of poignancy in what promises to be a joyous occasion: Murray, 63, lost her first husband, Neil, a fisherman, in a tragic accident at sea.
Their two children will be among 100 guests who will enjoy a buffet lunch. One of the chosen hymns seems especially apt amid the current parliamentary mayhem.
‘ It’s Lord Of All Hopefulness,’ Davidson, 48, tells me.
