2022

On 3 May 2022, Imran Ahmad Khan resigned as MP for Wakefield after being convicted of sexually assaulting a teenage boy, thus forcing a by-election. On 12 May, Lightwood was announced as one of four Labour Party candidates for the longlist, alongside Community Union employee Kate Dearden; Sam Howarth, an employee of Barnsley Central MP Dan Jarvis and who had previously worked for Jenny Chapman; and Rachael Kenningham.

Lightwood was elected on 23 June 2022 with a 4,925 majority. He made his maiden speech on 11 July 2022, paying tribute to some of his predecessors (Mary Creagh, David Hinchliffe and Walter Harrison) but declined to talk positively about his direct predecessor (Khan), instead celebrating victims and survivors of sexual and domestic violence.

At the 2022 Labour Party Conference, Lightwood was appointed Shadow Minister for Buses and Taxis taking over from Sam Tarry.
