Joseph Nicholas Bell

Joseph Nicholas Bell

Joseph Nicholas Bell (7 March 1864 – 17 December 1922) was a British Labour politician. He was elected Member of Parliament for Newcastle East in the 1922 General Election, but died a month later.

For many years Bell was General Secretary of the National Amalgamated Union of Labour. He was selected by the Labour Party to fight the Newcastle East constituency at the 1922 General Election. Already ill, he was unable to travel from London to campaign in the seat, but was elected in his absence ["The Times", 18 Dec 1922] , defeating the Coalition Liberal MP, Harry Barnes.

Bell died a month after his election, aged 58, and thus became one of only a handful of elected British MPs never to have taken their seats.

At the subsequent by-election Arthur Henderson held the seat for Labour.
