Keith Hampson

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Keith Hampson (born 14 August 1943), is a former Conservative party politician in the United Kingdom.

Hampson was a university lecturer, and personal assistant to Edward Heath in the 1966 general election.

He was elected MP for Ripon in February 1974, a seat that the Liberals had gained in a by-election the previous year. The constituency was abolished for the 1983 general election, and Hampson was then elected for Leeds North West. At the 1997 general election he was defeated by Labour candidate Harold Best in 1997.
