Graham Bright
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sir Graham Frank James Bright (born 2 April 1942) is a British Conservative politician.
Sir Graham became an MP by gaining Luton East from Labour at the 1979 general election. After constituency boundary changes, he transferred to Luton South at the 1983 general election, holding the seat until his defeat at the 1997 general election by Labour's Margaret Moran.
Bright was also featured in the infamous comedy programme, Brass Eye, although after successfully complaining to the Independent Television Commission clips featuring him were removed from all subsequent broadcasts.
