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:
“Americans see history as a straight line and themselves standing at the cutting edge of it as representatives for all mankind. They believe in the future as if it were a religion; they believe that there is nothing they cannot accomplish, that solutions wait somewhere for all problems, like brides.”
—Frances Fitzgerald (b. 1940)
