Alfred James Wellbeloved (29 July 1926 – 10 September 2012)〔(【引用サイトリンク】Telegraph Obituary - James Wellbeloved )〕 was a British politician. Wellbeloved was educated at South London Technical College and was a commercial and industrial correspondent. He served as a councillor on Erith Borough Council from 1956, and was the first leader of the London Borough of Bexley from 1964.〔 Wellbeloved was elected Labour Party Member of Parliament (MP) for Erith and Crayford at a 1965 by-election following the death of Norman Dodds, whose constituency chairman he had been.〔 He served successively as parliamentary private secretary (PPS) to Defence Minister Gerry Reynolds and Foreign Secretary Michael Stewart, and was also a junior defence minister in the Callaghan government.〔 In 1981, he was among the Labour MPs who defected to the Social Democratic Party. At the 1983 general election, he lost his seat by just 920 votes to the Conservative David Evennett.〔 After his defection, he was referred to as "the inappropriately named Wellbeloved" by then Labour leader Michael Foot. Wellbeloved subsequently rejoined the Labour Party as a member. Wellbeloved married Mavis Ratcliff in 1948.〔 Wellbeloved died in September 2012 aged 86. ==References== *''Times Guide to the House of Commons'', 1966 & 1983 * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「James Wellbeloved」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
