Lance Mallalieu

Lance Mallalieu

Edward Lancelot Mallalieu (14 March 1905 – 11 November 1979), known as Lance Mallalieu, was a British politician.

At the 1931 general election, he was elected as the Liberal Party Member of Parliament (MP) for Colne Valley, where his father Frederick Mallalieu had been MP from 1916 to 1922. He served until the 1935 general election, when he lost his seat to the Labour Party's Ernest Marklew, who was the only candidate opposing the National Government.

After joining the Labour Party, he returned to the House of Commons in 1948, at a by-election on 24th March in the Brigg constituency, where he served as MP until he retired in 1974.

Mallalieu's brother Joseph was Labour MP for Huddersfield from 1945 to 1950, then for Huddersfield East from 1950 to 1979. Joseph's daughter Ann has been a Labour life peer since 1991.
