This is the best summary I could come up with:

Former Transport Secretary Chris Grayling is to stand down as an MP at the end of this Parliament.

Mr Grayling, who also served as Leader of the House of Commons and Lord Chancellor, has been the MP for Epsom and Ewell in Surrey since 2001.

In a statement to his local Conservative constituency association on Friday he revealed the decision came following a prostate cancer diagnosis.

“I will obviously carry on working as normal until the election and will hope to see you at one of the upcoming events.”

It followed a series of transport policy mishaps including his handling of rail timetable changes and a £33m Brexit payout to Eurotunnel.

He stood down in the role when Boris Johnson became Prime Minister.
