Hugh Meyler

Hugh Mowbray Meyler (25 June 1875 – 30 April 1929) was a Liberal Party politician in the United Kingdom who served as Member of Parliament (MP) for Blackpool from 1923 to 1924.

At the 1918 general election, he stood unsuccessfully in the Bethnal Green South West constituency, coming third with 23.4% of the votes.

At the 1922 general election, he stood in the more promsing Blackpool constituency, where he lost by only 166 votes to the sitting Conservative MP Leonard Molloy. Molloy did not contest the 1923 general election, and Meyler won the seat with a majority of over 3,000 votes.

However, at the 1924 general election, Sir Walter de Frece retook the seat for the Conservatives. Meyler did not stand for Parliament again.
