William John Tout
William John Tout (1870–1946) was Labour MP for Oldham, a two-member constituency.
He won it in 1922 and 1923, but lost his seat in 1924, possibly as a result of Labour standing two candidates. He stood unsuccessfully again at the Oldham by-election, 1925.
He then won Sowerby from the Unionists in 1929, but lost it in 1931.
