Business

After leaving university, Kevin Hollinrake started working for Prudential. Then he co-founded Hunters estate agency in York in 1992. The agency had grown to over 150 branches across the country by 2015, with Hollinrake holding a 15% stake in the company. Hunters Property was admitted to trading on AIM in July 2015 with a market capitalisation of £16.9m. In February 2015, the company issued an IPO (initial public offering) for new investors to raise £2.5 m for capital investment.

MP since general election, 2015

On arrival in the House of Commons, Hollinrake had already turned down the option to fight four other constituencies before settling on the Conservative safe seat of Thirsk and Malton in the county of North Yorkshire. He has continually given voice in favour of an EU referendum.

Hollinrake is a strong supporter of David Cameron's 'Northern Powerhouse' idea, which aims to link the north of England more closely to markets in the south; making it easier to travel, exchange and do business.

In May Hollinrake made it clear that he would be writing to Amber Rudd, the Secretary of State for Energy, to declare support for "safe and discreet" fracking. In compensation, local communities in site areas would receive £100,000 and 1% of all revenues as an incentive to approve of the investment.

Hollinrake was opposed to Brexit prior to the 2016 referendum.
