释义 |
Sir Louis Stanley Johnson (11 October 1869 – 30 November 1937)[1] was an English solicitor and Conservative Party politician. Johnson was the son of Edward Johnson, of Hackney. He was educated privately and admitted as a solicitor in 1899, becoming a partner in the firm of Downer and Johnson, based in 426 Salisbury House, London Wall.[2] (The partnership was dissolved in 1928, when Johnson formed a new partnership known as Stanley Johnson & Allen).[3] Johnson was a member of Hackney Council.[4] He stood for Parliament, twice in 1910, in the Walthamstow division of Essex. At the January 1910 general election he lost to the Liberal MP Sir John Simon. When Simon faced a by-election in November 1910 after being appointed as Solicitor General, Johnson again failed to unseat him.[5] Johnson did not contest the general election in December 1910,[5] but in 1914 he became Mayor of Hackney, a position he held until 1919.[2] He finally entered the House of Commons at the 1918 general election when he was elected as the first Member of Parliament (MP) for the newly created Walthamstow East[6] (a division of the Municipal Borough of Walthamstow. Johnson had stood as a Coalition Unionist, and with the assistance of the "coalition coupon", he won nearly twice as many votes as his old adversary, John Simon. He was re-elected in 1922 and in 1923, and stood down from Parliament at the 1924 general election.[6] He was Honorary Lieutenant-Colonel of the London Regiment,[2] and was knighted in 1920.[7] References1. ^{{cite web | url = http://www.leighrayment.com/commons/Wcommons1.htm | title = House of Commons constituencies beginning with "W" (part1) | work = Leigh Rayment's House of Commons pages | accessdate = 2009-05-01}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite web | url = https://archive.org/stream/debrettshouseo1922londuoft/debrettshouseo1922londuoft_djvu.txt | title = Debrett's House of Commons, 1922 | accessdate = 2009-05-01}} 3. ^{{London Gazette|issue= 33436|date= 6 November 1928|linkeddate=|pages=7260–7261|city= London}} 4. ^{{cite news |title = Election Intelligence.
