Anne Marie Morris (born 5 July 1957) is a British politician and former lawyer.

Morris was born in London on 5 July 1957.

She was privately educated at Bryanston School in Dorset and the University of Oxford, where she studied law.

After a career working as a corporate lawyer, she became a marketing director for PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) and Ernst and Young.

2005

She was elected as a councillor on West Sussex County Council for the division of Cuckfield & Lucastes in 2005 and went on to chair the council's Health Scrutiny Committee.

2006

Following unsuccessful attempts to be selected as the Conservative candidate for the parliamentary seats of Lewes and Arundel and South Downs, in December 2006 Morris was selected by the local Conservative Association to contest the Newton Abbot constituency.

2007

In March 2007, Morris resigned as a councillor in West Sussex.

2008

The term had been used previously in the House of Lords by Conservative peer Lord Dixon-Smith in 2008.

2010

She has been Member of Parliament (MP) for Newton Abbot since 2010.

In the 2010 general election Morris was elected to the seat of Newton Abbot on a 5% swing from the Liberal Democrats.

In a close contest, she defeated the incumbent, Richard Younger-Ross, who had been MP for the former constituency of Teignbridge, by 523 votes.

2012

Morris attracted attention during Prime Minister's Questions in July 2012 as she shouted a long question on technical colleges in Devon over a noisy and increasingly amused Commons chamber, whilst waving a left arm held in a sling.

Video of her "high-pitched outburst" was widely circulated on social media.

Morris said she cared about the issue raised and would "always speak passionately about issues in my constituency."

In 2012, Morris was featured in an investigation by the BBC into MPs who owned property in London but claimed expenses for renting a separate property in the city.

She was listed as one of 22 MPs who were undertaking the practice, which was legal, following a cap on the amount MPs could claim for mortgage costs.

2013

In 2013, she was one of 30 Conservative rebels whose votes helped defeat the government's plans for military action in Syria.

She later said she made the decision because the military action plans "felt ill-thought through and smacked of regime change", but supported plans for air strikes against ISIL.

2014

In 2014 she led the UK's first ever policy review to consider entrepreneurial education for all levels of education, 'An Education System for an Entrepreneur'.

2015

Morris later stated that the comment was "totally unintentional" and gave an unreserved apology.

Prime Minister Theresa May had ordered the Chief Whip to suspend the party whip.

This incident took place a few weeks after the 2017 general election campaign during which Morris distanced herself from a remark made by her partner and election agent, Roger Kendrick, at a hustings, in which he said problems in the British education system were "due entirely to non-British born immigrants and their high birth rates".

The whip was restored to Morris on 12 December 2017, one day before a crucial vote on the Brexit process.

Although Morris voted with the Conservative government, the government was defeated by four votes.

In January 2022, it was reported by Politico that she had again lost the Conservative whip, for voting for an opposition day motion on a VAT cut for energy bills.

Regarding the December 2020 COVID-19 lockdown, Morris said: "There is nothing new in this document – it's just a rehash of data that has been published before. No attempt has been made to model the impact on the economy in the way that they have modelled the impact the tiers will have on Covid infections. I cannot support the Government in [the 1 December] vote, and everyone I know who has read the document is saying the same."

The Guardian reported in May 2022 that Morris had submitted a letter of no confidence in Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

Morris supported Liz Truss in the July–September 2022 Conservative Party leadership election.
