  • Candidates West Midlands
    Page | 1 LIBERAL/LIBERAL DEMOCRAT CANDIDATES in PARLIAMENTARY ELECTIONS in the WEST MIDLAND REGION 1945-2015 ALL CONSTITUENCIES WITHIN THE COUNTIES OF HEREFORDSHIRE SHROPSHIRE STAFFORDSHIRE WARWICKSHIRE WORCESTERSHIRE INCLUDING SDP CANDIDATES in the GENERAL ELECTIONS of 1983 and 1987 COMPILED BY LIONEL KING 1 Page | 2 PREFACE As a party member since 1959, based in the West Midlands and a parliamentary candidate and member of the WMLF/WMRP Executive for much of that time, I have been in the privileged position of having met on several occasions, known well and/or worked closely with a significant number of the individuals whose names appear in the Index which follows. Whenever my memory has failed me I have drawn on the recollections of others or sought information from extant records. Seven decades have passed since the General Election of 1945 and there are few people now living with personal recollections of candidates who fought so long ago. I have drawn heavily upon recollections of conversations with older Liberal personalities in the West Midland Region who I knew in my early days with the party. I was conscious when I began work, twenty years ago, that much of this information would be lost forever were it not committed promptly to print. The Liberal challenge was weak in the West Midland Region over the period 1945 to 1959 in common with most regions of Britain. The number of constituencies fought fluctuated wildly; 1945, 21; 1950, 31; 1951, 3; 1955 4. The number of parliamentary constituencies in the region averaged just short of 60, a very large proportion urban in character.

  • HOC History Complete
    HOC history: Part One – Foundation Let’s start at the very beginning. The problem is knowing exactly where to start. The events of April 1st 1968, which will be commemorated later this year, are not the start of this story. The small group of people who founded Harlequins Orienteering Club in a hall in Kinver on that day did not mystically appear from some sort of void; their story began earlier and is important to this account. Perhaps we need to go back a further two years to the creation of the Halesowen and District Club, following as it did in quick succession to the West Midlands’ first club, Octavian Droobers. Or do we perhaps return to 1964 or even 1962, to the respective foundations of the country’s first club (South Ribble) and the country’s first association (the Scottish). In fact, I want to start in the pages of the Observer newspaper over fifty years ago. The reason for this is that the story of Harlequins is not really about a sequence of dates and obscure facts. It is about people, a chain of key individuals who made things happen and who effectively passed the baton from one to another. One of the first people in our chain wrote these words in his Sunday column in 1957. “I have just taken part, for the first time, in one of the best sports in the world. It is hard to know what to call it. The Norwegians call it 'orientation'.....”. This was probably the first time that the sport had been given such public exposure in Britain.
