Lorna Fitzsimons
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lorna Fitzsimons (born 6 August 1967) is a politician in the United Kingdom. Lorna attended Loughborough College of Art and Design (1988), where she was awarded a BA in Textile Design.[1]
She was the Labour member of Parliament for Rochdale from 1997 until her defeat at the 2005 election by the Liberal Democrat candidate Paul Rowen. Shortly after her election in 1997 Fitzsimmons gave an interview to the News of the World in which she expressed regret that she could no longer indulge in 'al fresco' sex, threesomes and drugs because she had become an MP.
Fitzsimons was formerly president of the National Union of Students and a member of Labour Friends of Israel. Her predecessor Stephen Twigg and successor Jim Murphy as President of the National Union of Students have also been very active in the Labour Friends of Israel.
She was appointed CEO of Britain Israel Communications and Research Centre on 29th September 2006.
