Liberal Democrat President pays tribute to Piara Khabra

June 20, 2007 2:48 PM

On hearing the news of the death of Piara Singh Khabra, Simon Hughes MP, Liberal Democrat President, said:

''Parliament, London and British politics, as well as the Indian community throughout the UK, will be much saddened to hear of the death of Piara Singh Khabra.

Piara was the very model of an immigrant to Britain who gave so much to this country - as teacher, social worker and magistrate and, for 15 years, as member of parliament.

The whole community in Southall and Ealing, and many political friends, will much lament the death of someone who really was the elder of the House of Commons.

Liberal Democrats join in sending his family and community our special condolences and wishes''.

    If you are a resident of the Bermondsey and Old Southwark constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
