Frederick Hall

. Frederick Hall (1855 – 18 April 1933) was a Member of Parliament for Normanton, and a trade unionist within the Yorkshire Miners' Association.

As a Lib-Lab MP
In the 2 July 1907 session of the House of Commons, Frederick Hall; Joseph Walton and Compton Rickett, asked the Home Secretary, Herbert Gladstone, if he would support measures to prevent the eviction of tenants from workers' housing during trade disputes after several families were evicted in Doncaster. Gladstone answered with a refusal to support such a provision, as eight of the workers had been given warnings for over six weeks and their dismissal and eviction was seen as reasonable.

As a Labour MP
In 1909 the Miners' Federation of Great Britain abandoned their support for the Liberal Party and called for all Lib-Lab politicians to switch to the Labour Party.

Death
Hall died in April 1933, aged 78. His death triggered the 1933 by-election, won by Tom Smith.
