I don’t think I understand why David Davies is even calling a by-election. Listening to the news earlier in the day it was stated that by-elections only for when someone dies or no longer wants to be an M.P.

Davies has only resigned his post in the shadow cabinet, he still wants to remain an M.P. so why call for a by-election and have all the associated costs ?

Am I misunderstanding the situation
