1969 Paddington North by-election

UK parliamentary by-election

The 1969 Paddington North by-election was a by-election to the House of Commons for the constituency of Paddington North. It was necessitated by the death of sitting MP Ben Parkin.

Parkin had been on the left of the party and was part of a delegation of Labour MPs who met Joseph Stalin in 1947; when he voted against the Ireland Bill, he was warned by the Chief Whip about his conduct.

The result was a hold for the Labour Party.
