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:
“Neither a borrower nor a lender be,
For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.
This above all: to thine own self be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
