Stockton South Conservative Matt Vickers has continued to represent Hartburn on Stockton Council since his election to Parliament in 2019. 
But council officials have confirmed the Tory MP will stand down ahead of a by-election on May 6. 
The former group leader was elected to his Hartburn ward with a large majority in May 2019 – taking 1,545 votes.
He then beat Labour’s Dr Paul Williams by more than 5,000 votes later that year to claim a seat in Westminster.
