George Foulkes, Baron Foulkes of Cumnock
George Foulkes, Baron Foulkes of Cumnock, PC (born 21 January 1942, Oswestry, Shropshire) is a British Labour Co-operative life peer. He has been a member of the House of Commons, the Scottish Parliament and as a life peer is now a member of the House of Lords. Until May 2011 he was a member of both the Lords and the Scottish Parliament but he did not seek reelection to the Scottish Parliament in the 2011 Scottish Parliament election. He is often described by the media as an "ultra loyalist" to the Labour Party. In 1993, he was forced to resign as Shadow Defence Minister after being convicted of being drunk and disorderly during an incident in which he struck a police officer.
Foulkes was a strong supporter of ID cards, regularly speaking in favour of former British Government proposals. He is also a supporter of Scottish devolution and was involved in the drafting of "A Claim of Right for Scotland" in 1988.
