David Reed (politician)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

David Reed (born 24 April 1945) has been a Labour politician in the United Kingdom.

In 1970, he was elected at the age of just 25 as Member of Parliament (MP) for Sedgefield in County Durham. However, the constituency was abolished for the February 1974 general election, and Reed has not returned to Parliament since.

The Sedgefield constituency was re-created in boundary changes for the 1983 general election, when future Prime Minister Tony Blair was elected as its MP.
