They captioned the post: Traitors star, Zack Davies, proved how ‘faithful’ he is by coming out on the doorstep with Hertsmere Labour hopeful, Josh Tapper. Both have their roots in Borehamwood and Zack was out supporting Josh just a stone’s throw away from his old home

“With Josh being a well-seasoned reality star from Gogglebox, both were in their element talking to residents about how Hertsmere and the country will change under Labour.

“But it isn’t just their grounding in Borehamwood and reality TV that bonds both Josh and Zack, but their respective political experience in the Cabinet Office and in public affairs. @TheTraitorsUK #votelabour”.

Josh has said that education will be one of the key areas he would focus on if he was successful. Speaking to The Jewish Chronicle, he said: “The education system didn’t bring the best out of every young person. It didn’t bring the best out of those who weren’t as academic or were in the arts or in vocational education.

“That’s what inspired me to want to make change. I want to do something about it.” He is best known for starring on Gogglebox alongside his sister Amy, mum Nikki and dad Jonathan and he looks totally grown up compared to his days filming the show.
