From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fred Hall MP, circa 1906

Frederick Hall (1855 – 18 April 1933) was a Liberal Party or Lib-Lab then Labour Party politician in England.

He was elected to the House of Commons at a by-election in 1905 as a Liberal, following the death of the sitting Member of Parliament (MP), William Parrott. In 1909 his trade union instructed him to take the Labour Party whip and from then on he sat as a Labour MP. He represented the constituency for 28 years, until his death in 1933, aged 78.

At the 1933 Normanton by-election held after his death, the Labour candidate Tom Smith was returned unopposed.
