From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Peter Charles Hubbard-Miles (9 May 1927 - 1 October 2005) was a British Conservative Party (UK) politician.
Hubbard-Miles was educated at Lewis School in Pengam. From 1967 onwards, he was a member at various times of Glamorgan County Council, Porthcawl Unitary District Council, West Glamorgan County Council and Ogwr Borough Council. In the February 1974 general election, he stood unsuccessfully in the Labour constituency stronghold of Aberavon.
However, he was elected Member of Parliament for the normally safe Labour seat of Bridgend in the 1983 Conservative landslide. He was a member of the Select Committee on Welsh Affairs from 1983 to 1985, and was parliamentary private secretary to the Secretary of State for Wales from 1985 to 1987. In 1987, Hubbard-Miles lost the Bridgend seat back to Labour Party candidate Win Griffiths.
