Lynn Ungoed-Thomas
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Arwyn Lynn Ungoed-Thomas (29 June 1904 – 4 December 1972), known as Lynn Ungoed-Thomas, was a Welsh Labour Party politician.
He was elected at the 1945 general election as Member of Parliament (MP) for the South Wales constituency of Llandaff and Barry. His seat was abolished for the 1950 general election, but shorty afterwards the Labour MP for the new Leicester North East constituency became a High Court judge, and Ungoed-Thomas was returned to Parliament in the resulting Leicester North East by-election.
He held the seat until his resignation from the House of Commons in 1962.
