Piara Khabra died today. He was the Labour MP for Ealing Southall and, at 82, was the oldest Member of Parliament. Born in India, he arrived in the UK in 1959 having served in the Indian Army during the Second World War. He was a teacher and social worker before he entered parliament in 1992 and built up a reputation as an assiduous constituency MP. He will be sorely missed and all of us at TMP send our best wishes and condolences to his family at this sad time.
