Geoffrey Edge (born 26 May 1943) was British Labour Party politician.
Geoffrey Edge was born in West Bromwich and educated at the London School of Economics. He then became a university lecturer. Edge was Member of Parliament for Aldridge-Brownhills from 1974 to 1979, when he lost the seat to the Conservative Richard Shepherd. To this day, Labour have not managed to regain Aldridge-Brownhills after a change in the constituency boundaries, even at the 1997 general election landslide - indicating the seat is no longer a marginal.
Famous quotes containing the word edge:
“It is the star to every wand’ring bark,
Whose worth’s unknown, although his height be taken.
Love’s not Time’s fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle’s compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
