Arthur Richardson (5 February 1860 – 27 June 1936)[1][2] was a British merchant and Liberal-Labour[3] politician from Nottingham. He sat in the House of Commons between 1906 and 1918.

Schooling

Richardson was born in East Bridgford, Nottinghamshire,[3] the son of William Richardson.[4] He

was educated at East Bridgford National School and then at Magnus Grammar School in Newark-on-Trent, and became a tea merchant in the firm of Arthur Richardson and Sons.[4]

Politics

Richardson was elected at the 1906 general election as the Member of Parliament (MP) for Nottingham South,[5][6] defeating the sitting Unionist MP Lord Henry Cavendish-Bentinck.[7] Although described as Liberal-Labour, he was not a Trade Union sponsored MP, so was not required to join the Labour Party in 1910.

Richardson held the seat until the January 1910 election, when he was defeated by Cavendish-Bentinck, and he was unsuccessful when he stood again in December 1910.[7] He returned to Parliament seven years later, when he was elected unopposed as MP for Rotherham at a by-election in February 1917 after the Liberal MP Jack Pease was elevated to the peerage.[8] He held that seat until the 1918 general election,[2] when he stood unsuccessfully as a Liberal Party candidate in Nottingham West.[9] He then contested the next three general elections in the Melton division of Leicestershire. After a clear defeat by the sitting Conservative Party MP Sir Charles Yate in 1922, he lost to Yate by only 44 votes in 1923, but by over 5,000 votes in 1924.[10]

He died on 27 June 1936[1] in Edwalton, Nottingham.[3]
