She has run a successful international business company for 20 years and says that she has a track record of 'vision, creative thinking, motivation, leadership, and seeing through projects to success.'

Pole currently the chair of the Labour Party in the Honiton and Tiverton constituency.

She told Nub News: "I'm having a lot of conversations on the doorsteps of people who are horrified about his lies and general behaviour.

"What I am finding is that lifelong Conservative voters are unhappy. One person told me 'get him gone' and another said they disliked 'the brass neck of him.'

"I think is time for a long overdue change down here and people agree with me. It is about Boris, his lies, the way he runs his government and the mismanagement."

The candidate for the Liberal Democrats, Richard Foord has also said that Boris Johnson needs to resign.
